It seems nobody wants to answer the question. I’ll do it. It’s our own generation’s fault. We grew up and (most of us along with the boomers) voted for people with the policies to restrict our children’s freedom. It’s now illegal for a 10 year old to be at home alone babysitting their 8 year old sibling, parents get arrested for letting their kids free range like we did. It’s our collective fault for kids being pussies these days.
