The world is becoming more limited. We find something fun to do, then someone comes along with a list of reasons why you cannot do it. Take me and my mates for an example. We hang around outside the library when it's closed, and ride around, etc, on our bikes. But we've gotten kicked off that area many times by the police, saying they are recieving complaints, but there's no houses around there, and the library is closed. So after getting kicked off, we go to the park, and find a crash mat against a bin, so we drag it into the park, we were going to put it back afterwards, and we were jumping off the top of the tower in the park onto it. So this copper comes and tells us to get off and leave the area because little children may want to play on the apparatus. I don't know, but I wouldn't be going to the playpark, at half ten, when it's dark, at night (if I was a little child). What makes it worse, is that we had some jumps set up outside the abandoned factory, so the cops tore them down, fenced it off and put up CCTV. I would have prefered to be ten-twenty years older. That way, in the 70's and 80's, nobody actually worried about anything, and let people do as they please, providing that it is against the law. They picked up all sorts of stuff and then put fingers in their mouth, and nobody died from it. Computers were very basic so people would get out more, and have a better social life, and be fitter. Baby cots were covered in lead based paint, which was promptly chewed and lícked, and they did not die from it. People ate chips and drank fizzy-pop, but never got overweight, because they actually got out. They had no playstations or Xboxes, or TV's with 500 channels, or either internet chat rooms, they got out and played with their friends. They got into full-on fist fights and had no prosecution from parents. They also, believe it or not, actually WALKED to school. Nowadays, everyone is on the computer, or inside, and getting less fit, and not socialising as much as we could.
