[quote=Anonymous]Agree that people, especially kids, were far more active. I was also a kid (born in 1980) that was outside from sunup to sundown with my friends. I wouldn’t even go home for lunch sometimes and that was fine. Riding bikes, swimming, exploring the junk dumped in the woods, LOL. Every single day! My parents were more active too and their lives didn’t revolve around my siblings and me. My father played softball recreationally but his team played tournaments a few weekends of the summer and it was never the mindset of “Dad’s putting his hobby above the KIDS!!!” It was “Dad had a tournament this weekend and we’re going. Bobby and Sally will also be there and there’s a playground or you can bring a book.” So we’d still be somewhere outside playing. Dad was allowed to indulge in his active “hobby” and it was fine and not Dad being selfish. So he stayed in shape, well, even to this day. [/quote]
