This conversation almost feels like it must be happening in the “latchkey kids” days for this universe’s storyline… As a Gen X kid myself, it’s interesting to note this conversational tone, and wonder if my own parents ever had this kind of discussion with each other, where there was little concern as to where a child was if they weren’t at school but they weren’t home either… I mean,…I’d be out playing all day in the woods and mountains near my home, sometimes walking miles by myself to visit neighbor kids, and often wouldn’t be back until dinner-time, even when… Read more »
