What won't you let your kids do that you got to do as a kid?

I just had to be home by a certain time. We'd hop on our bikes and just ride wherever we wanted to go. Go to the mall, 7/11, a field, bb courts and stay all day. I'm talking like 9yo. I can't imagine letting my kids do that today. It's crazy. My kids miss out on some fun.

I can't recall a time where I didn't know where my kids were at in the last 8 years. Of course my kids won't have their head sliced open cuz a golfer not happy about being yelled at during his swing directed towards them and hit their target. Those were the days!!!

I got no kids, don't want 'em, but yeah, it's fucked up. We have more laws and restrictions than ever before, but society is just way fucked up. I especially agree 100% with OP....man, we used to go Trick or Treating at night, by ourselves, anywhere we wanted to go, and nobody worried about it. And in summer when school was out, we rode our bikes all over town all friggin day, as long as you were home by supper time.

Fuck that. I grew up in suburban NY and hustled from the age of 12. Mow lawns, paint barns, pump gas, build rock walls etc etc. That shit doesn't exist anymore really. Made $..bought go carts, dirt bikes...had much fun off of my labor.

Good times. It was worth quite a bit to a kid when they first started recycling it.
