I assume whoever wrote this is American?
In my country tons of investment goes into spaces for kids to exist in every age group. From playgrounds to youth centres, after school clubs, camps, sports programs. Like i had to help my nephew when he had a breakdown because he couldnt go to all the events he wanted to because theres physically not enough time so some overlap. And most of that stuff is free and a lot of the stuff that isnt has options for low income households and things like the youth centres are specifically target at low income and minority areas.
And also i dont mean to sound like a boomer, but kids can just like play outside, or with toys in their rooms??
They could well be Bri'ish, and this is in reference to the recent age verification laws passed there.
What country? I really want to look into what these programs are.
Why's there always someone who feels the need to express that the post is not relevant to them? Cool, move along then.
No man, these are great goals for the US. I want to hear about how other countries are doing it well.
yeah how fucking dare someone bring their alternate worldview into this discussion, dont they know the internet is america
