[QUOTE="AppleCori, post: 734437, member: 16024"] Plastic furniture covers used to be a thing! I very much enjoyed growing up when and where and how I did, but I wouldn’t let my kids have that kind of freedom.We roamed around the farms and pastures with animals, swung out across murky ponds on grapevines, climbed in haylofts, rode motorcycles, explored abandoned barns and buildings, waded in creeks that we’re known to have snakes in them without supervision, and lots more stuff. And that was when I was a preschooler. I had a small motorcycle that we called a minibike when I was three. And I got it from my cousin when she outgrew it and got a bigger one. It was great, but no one does that anymore. I think we know better now. I had lots of freedom, and it was a double-edged sword. Some good, some bad. [/QUOTE]
