Shoot, I grew up in the '90s and if it wasn't raining, I was outside. If I said "I'm bored" my parents would have plenty of chores for me to do!
It was great. My childhood was wonderful. My group of friends and I wandering through the forests and junkyards having adventures that kids now only see in TV shows. Only a handful of kids we knew had a playstation but their parents would never let us all be in there playing for hours. That wouldn't have gone down well. But then more people got them and before I knew it, no one wanted to come outside =/
It's no wonder to me that kids now have things like depression and ADHD. Lord knows I felt like shit when I was grounded, I'd hate to feel like that EVERY DAY.
Is it normal that I feel like I was born at the wrong age?
