AlbieQuirky posted:You were walking yourself home from school with a key at age five? It's weird to me as well. I was allowed to walk home by myself for a few years before, but wasn't given a key til I was like 13. It was annoying because my mum started working a later shift, so I had to go to this after school club with my brother and other significantly younger kids until then. Some of the kids were cute and funny to talk to but the staff made us eat toast and drink squash at regular intervals (nobody needs that much toast imo), plus there were consoles (you were allowed to play for 20 mins at a time) with two games and no memory cards. So you were stuck on the early levels until the end of time. I guess what I'm saying is the best thing would be a middle ground between me and that goon. A key from about 10 sounds OK to me.

I was a kid during the 70s and the general modern perspective is it's a miracle that all of us didn't die from all the stuff we got up to.

I was left home alone starting in third grade, with a key and all. I cooked for myself (ramen and popcorn) and usually was alone all day on summer breaks. Such is the joy of being a "mature" child, an independent youth followed by many years of depression.

mortality before the age of twenty was apparently almost twice as common in 1970 as it was in 2010 (edit: closer to three times as much) the magnitude of that surprises me. i didn't read the article but i guess we die younger than some group of OECD countries. believable here's an article with stats on deaths due to accidents: quote:Between 1960 and 1990 the death rate for children aged five to 14 fell 48 percent ... Among children under five, deaths from these causes [unintentional injury or accident] dropped from 44 per 100,000 children in 1960 to 18.6 per 100,000 in 1990. some of the reduction in accidents causing deaths will be better medical care, some will be safer cars and balconies and poo poo, but i guess some of it is parents getting educated about ways their kids could die in accidents, and avoiding that. the article says that "advantage of education may have contributed to growing inequality between the mortality rate for children of more-educated parents and that for children of less-educated parents", but it doesn't give any numbers, annoyingly. (edit: i wonder if the education rates of the US and those 19 OECD countries follow a similar pattern?) here's another data-like anecdote from that article: "the amount of safety information in Dr. Benjamin Spock's popular manual of baby and child care increased from three pages to 13 pages between 1957 and 1992." anyway, there's less child death now than there was when we were kids edit: oh yeah, i need to ask at some point, what does AUG mean? i just showed up here edit2: awkward, ugly, gross? the OP didnt say it but the third or so post said two of those. anyway im done oystertoadfish has a new favorite as of 03:12 on Mar 7, 2019 |

One of my classmates was hit by a car that he couldn’t see coming in second grade (fortunately he lived). I am not going to contribute to this derail any more.

oystertoadfish posted:mortality before the age of twenty was apparently almost twice as common in 1970 as it was in 2010 (edit: closer to three times as much) Yah. I was born in 1972 and I keep seeing people who are in roughly my age group post these idiotic "we did this and that and survived" screeds. Now where I live (Norway) we used to lose about 100 kids in car crash fatalities back in the 70s. These years it's usually in the single digits and at least once it's been zero. Mainly thanks to prevalent use of proper child seats and such. Guess what, dadspam posters, you survived and so did I but those 100 kids per year aren't posting anything on loving facebook because they didn't survive.

The parents in my neighborhood all put the kids outside pretty much all weekend, and we just came home for lunch or dinner. Nobody supervised us, we just wandered in the woods and poo poo. There is something to be said for teaching your kids responsibility, and for protecting them, but there has to be some middle ground between watching them all the time and leaving them unsupervised most of the time.

Child finds leftover deelyboppers from when her mother went to a bachelorette party, doesn’t get that they are dicks. Or, child finds leftover deelyboppers from when her mother went to a bachelorette party, absolutely gets that they are dicks, is ice-cold about embarrassing her teachers. Honestly, don’t know which I’d rather.

Or mom makes a very tone deaf prank by giving her daughter deelyboppers so she can laugh at all the pearl clutchers at the ultimate expense of her daughter's dignity.

Pssht that's not even a school bus. Pic has to be a kid going somewhere else, mall or something. But it can't be denied that dicks are funny. E I hope the kid is going somewhere with the purpose of embarrassing someone. I mean she can't not know those are penises.
