You could walk to school alone with no fear and the music was better.

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.

I am a 90's kid (born 1990 to be exact) and I was one of those kids going to my best friends door knocking to see if they were home. Riding bikes, flashlight tag, box ball, playing in the dirt and I remember being scolded for staying out past "when the street lights came on". I miss those days.
