[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is this a big deal? My neighborhood friends and I played all the time after school.[/quote] That was your setup. I grew up in a house where it was a Very Big Deal for anyone other than the four of us to cross the threshold. It was a huge event. I had friends over fewer than a dozen times in 20 years of living there. I didn't live in a neighborhood where kids roamed the streets and just randomly knocked on doors to ask if a kid who lived there could play. You called the person's house and made a plan. (In my case, the plan was never for them to come to my house.)[/quote] Can you do an AMA thread? What was this like as a child? Why was it such a big deal to heave friends over? Do you feel like this affected you positively? Negativity? So curious because we were an open-door family and I strive to make our home that way now. Would love to hear the flip side. [/quote]
