[quote=Anonymous]Another thing to keep in mind is that in Japan other adults will look out for unsupervised kids. They have no qualms about helping or correcting a child that isn't theirs (I'm not Japanese so I may be wrong). Back in the 60's and 70's when kids were running around the neighborhood, the adult neighbors were free to discipline or call out bad behavior they saw. They could report what they saw to your parents. Alternatively if you needed help you could run over and ring your neighbors' door bell. People knew their neighbors more.[/quote]
