I believe the pendulum has got to swing back the other way at some point because this is ridiculous. Judging by today's standards I don't know how we all survived to tell the tale, but we did!Jane https://www.blogger.com/profile/05368686874403775974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1535516938330383686.post-23987841248726957252011-05-19T11:50:26.918-06:002011-05-19T11:50:26.918-06:00I was born a bit later, but in Russia, and had the...I was born a bit later, but in Russia, and had the wildest childhood by todays standards, perhaps we were the last generation to do so. We did so much crazy stuff outdoors, building forts, cooking on a fire (at 6-9 yrs old), swimming unsupervised, and occasionally getting hurt. I too don't even know what kids DO for fun these days, everything is so sanitized. If there is a pile of dirt, doubtless it will be soon surrounded by a fence 'to keep kids safe'.

We had the best childhood. My brothers and I spent the entire day outdoors, playing, exploring, having fun. We didn't have many toys, and we didn't need them; our imaginations created our fun. I really don't envy the kids today; their childhoods seem so dull.Plowing Through Life (Martha)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06547318824997712369noreply@blogger.com
