Question What Do You You Miss From Childhood?

I was thinking last night about all the cool stuff I used to do as a kid...things kids don't do anymore, either because of the technology available to them today, or because it's just too dangerous...


For instance, I used to LOVE to go roller skating. Kids don't do that anymore. You're hard-pressed to even find a roller rink anywhere, at least where I live.


Trick-or-treating: Hallowe'en is my favorite holiday, and I remember when we used to go trick-or-treating every year. I remember when people used to set up their houses elaborately for the kids, and you didn't have to check your candy. You could eat it along the way. You could even eat things like popcorn balls and fruit. I also remember the first time my mother brought me to the hospital to have my candy X-rayed, because of that asshole who razor-bladed his own kid's treats.

Kids don't trick-or-treat anymore, except at the mall and in some subdivisions where everyone knows each other.....I haven't gotten a trick-or-treater in ten years....
