I personally think Thanksgiving should be all about being with your family and being kind to one another. But thanksgiving has just been known for FOOD. When I hear the word Thanksgiving the first thing I think of is food. That's just what modern U.S. teens have adapted to. So food is all people think Thanksgiving is about. Thanksgiving is about food, to me. The article I read about the facts of Thanksgiving informed me about why we have Thanksgiving (even though I already knew) I learned other information on Thanksgiving.
On Thanksgiving I get to eat as much food as I can without being judged. This day I have a reason to pig out. The best part is the next day I can go and work off all the calories shopping on Black Friday. Now you may be saying it's wrong to just affiliate Thanksgiving with food. Yes it is, I'm not gonna deny it, I know its wrong but I have adapted to a modern life that most no longer care about others and the way they feel. Growing up when you heard Thanksgiving you knew you were gonna be with family and your going to eat a LOT of food. That's just the way it is. At school they tried to teach us that Thanksgiving is about thanks and happiness. Yes it used to be, but all it's adapted to is just a big competition for who can make the better turkey or a better pumpkin pie. That's just the way we have been adapted to. Like animals adapt to surrounding in time we adapt to our life in time.
