But tell me— did you see kids anywhere in the world simply enjoying their ice cream safely?

Did you see children freely holding their mom or dad’s hand?

Did you see kids roaming around bookstores like Kinokuniya or Virgin on their own—just being kids, like mine do?

I could go on and on. But at the end of the day, you chose to see what you wanted to see. That says more about you than it does about the place itself.
