When the street lights came on, it was time to go home. It was nice.<br /><br />I don't see this anymore. And yeah, I think it is a problem that kids are not allowed to play out in the open, on their own, any more. <br /><br />That, and how the schools are trying to make boys into girls, up to and including psych meds, and you have a toxic brew for unhappy kids, not to mention the occasional school shooting.kurt9https://www.blogger.com/profile/02101147267959016924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497093028548856666.post-62046983032306395102015-09-12T11:02:57.873-04:002015-09-12T11:02:57.873-04:00Gotta agree.
