[quote=Anonymous]Husband and I were talking about how we ate sugared cereal, drank soda and chocolate milk and we’re all thin as rails because we ran around all the time. Riding bikes, racing bikes, going in the woods, running to a friend’s house because they were the one with the basketball hoop etc, spent the whole day at the pool with $2.50 for lunch and snacks. There’s just no way to replicate that with “activities”. It really was special and made us resilient and clever and fit. It is such a shame kids don’t have that anymore in most places. Can you even leave a 12 year old unattended at a pool anymore? [/quote]
