[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We didn't grow up playing in the street. Our kids would never play on the street. Don't you have a driveway?[/quote] Look at the name of this site: the word "urban" appears rather prominently. No, driveways are not assumed in the city, nor should they be. To answer your question, OP, our kids are older and we live on a one-way street in NW DC. We don't have yards to speak of, and our children play on the front sidewalks. Although I sometimes wish we had a yard, meeting everyone on the sidewalks builds community and makes it unnecessary to schedule playdates. ("Just look outside! Who's out?") We also have pickup games in the street sometimes, with an adult lookout.[/quote]
