LOLSometimes I'm amazed we survived childhood. I think we had a lot more fun than children nowadays though. I couldn't imagine my mom not letting me out of her sight like todays' moms do. Report

Now a days my nieces and nephews spend it indoors watching tv and video games. Report
May 17, 201016 yr comment_8871 When I was a kid my mother used to go to Atlantic City with my aunt and leave me and my cousins on the boardwalk while they went in to gamble. Can you imagine doing that today? I won't even let my kids leave the backyard unless someone is on the stoop and they're 8 and 9. It's just a different world sadly. Maybe that's why kids spend more time indoors watching TV and video games. I know they would be in the house a lot more often if I didn't have a yard. Um... and I'll pass on that jungle gym! Report
May 17, 201016 yr comment_8876 It's just a different world sadly.Too true. It's funny to think back, and most of the time my mom had absolutely no idea where I was. We had a bunch of kids in the cul-de-sac I lived in, so I could've been anywhere at any given time. Kind of amazing to think about now. Report
May 17, 201016 yr comment_8922 Is it really a different world now or is it the fact that we have more access to the bad things that happen? With the internet, 24 hour news channels, and faux news channels we are inundated with all the bad things in the world. Looking at a few research papers, the total number or abductions by strangers has actually dropped since 1980 to 2009. And well over half of child abductions are by family members or family friends.Now back on topic. This jungle gym was a TON of fun. We were and still are HUGE Star Wars fans. I'll actually be heading to Disney World in 2 weeks for yet ANOTHER Star Wars Weekend. Report
