“In the 1970s and early 80s, most kids had an insane amount of freedom to more or less go about their business with little to no adult supervision or interference. We were self-sufficient, both by design and necessity, and knew well the value of independence. Most of us had house rules, but we were on our honor to comport ourselves with dignity and respect while out in the world. We understood well the concept of risk.” https://medium.com/ellemeno/all-on-my-own-5aedc75c691
