[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Have you just time-traveled from the 1970s, OP? In our neighborhood, playing in the street stops after elementary school. In good weather, the little ones often play outside. But as the kids' extra-curriculars get serious, with practice or lessons nearly every day of the week and nearly all weekend, it becomes impossible. None of the children I know play video games all day. It's all scheduled enrichment. [/quote] What the heck? Life outside of the DC Metro helicopter tiger moms committee shows that boys DO indeed still ride bikes, skateboard,venture into the woods, play street hockey, basketball pick-up games etc... Sure there is some more online gaming but life in DCUM area is not the norm. What you all fail to realize is it the parents fault. Starting activities at 1yrs old. Forcing year round sports, planning events, ultiple time a week activities, overworking themselves etc... [/quote]
