I remember those films — the ones that actually had to be loaded onto a projector...ones that talked about sugar and why a child should pick the healthy choice - not the popular sugar one...then again, we played with our imagination and didn’t depend on a computer game to do it for us...we ran, fell, got cuts and bruises, drank from a garden hose, build forts, etc....fun times...
Yes, we got out more in the 70s. My brother and I would walk two miles to the 7-11 to get Slurpees, when we had $.25 each. They came in real plastic cups with baseball players on them.
My son drank from a garden hose a few days ago... a busy body told me it could kill him...I told busy body I drank from hoses, biked without a helmet, played outside with friends, and swam in ponds...and I’m still alive. My boys aren’t going to be protected by life. They need to have fun.
