[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just heard this. I kept waiting for the person being interviewed to mention two income households as a reason that kids aren’t out playing unsupervised in the neighborhood. All the kids are in aftercare or daycare because both parents work. Have kids go play on Friday afternoon? Whose home on a Friday afternoon?[/quote] My kids never played outside unsupervised because we live in a city and that's not safe. [/quote] Didn't always used to be that way. My parents both grew up in a city and they ran around, played in the alleys, and went home when the church bells rang. [/quote]
