At 10 we were always miles away on bikes, and then came home for dinner.

We are raising a nation full of wimps and wussies. We will lose the next big war decidedly with this mindset. If we even have the “balls” to fight it.

at the age of 10 I was miles away in a creek bed looking for crayfish or down the road about 3 mi to the local strip mall candy store
My sis who was 9 frequently made the trip herself...walking

The fact that today’s kids are much less self-reliant than the ones from my generation (the late 1950s through the 1960s) is a very old story, unfortunately.

Yes the good old days. I was 6 years old walking miles away from my home also—catching fish or crawdads.
Of course cops back then were rarely seen and if you did see them they only had a .38 revolver on them and didn’t look/act like Darth Vader.
