Dont play in the road.
Dont go with strangers.
Dont go past (X or Y Streets)
And be home when the streets lights come on.
Is it really more complex than that these days?
In the 50s
Mom sees son walking out the door, “Where are you going?” she says.
Son,”out”
Mom,”who will you be with”?
Son,”Some kids”
Mom, “When are you coming home”?
Son, “Later”
Mom, “OK, have fun and be careful”
Oh I can relate to those instructions! HA! my childhood was a venture indeed when you see kids today doing nothing but feed their faces while looking at whatever screen they happen to have at hand.
Heck the town use to close down roads so we could slide down in winter months.......even the parents went down that hill it was wonderful for all!
