[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I was a kid I remember kids playing with lighter fluid and matches - in elementary school! The difference is, there were no parents anywhere in sight. Someone found the lighter fluid in their garage, someone else found a lighter, someone else had some trash to burn and off we went. All kids 5 to 10 in a good neighborhood in an UMC area.

The difference now is that kids are rarely alone to get into trouble - there’s always an adult around. The smug parents on this board didn’t know half the things their “well behaved” kids were doing.

They sent their  kids outside  in the morning and told them to come back at lunch and dinner time. Whatever mischief the kids got into was not their problem...[/quote]

Yes, we did all sorts of stuff outside of the eye of adults.

Kids these days are undersocialized because every moment is planned and monitored by an adult.  [/quote]

Do you actually have kids, or are you just a bitter old person?

I have a kid and--guess what--kids in my neighborhood run around all the time without adult supervision.

My guess is the last kids you were around were grandkids. [/quote]
