I was born in 1980 and remember knocking on doors in my neighborhoods to ask if my friends could come out and play. We played until the streetlights came on. We played video games too (Nintendo, Sega Master System Days) but played outside more. Played nerf football in the streets and lawn baseball where hitting the trash can across the street was a homerun. I remember the older kids like my brother breakdancing and hanging out in forts which they wouldn’t let us younger kids in. Good times.
Somewhere in the early 90’s it all went to shit, as my neighborhood friends and I drifted apart.
Id argue the downfall happened in the 2000s. September 11th started the culture of living in fear and social media triggered the rapid descent into clown world.
