Heard a stat yesterday I found startling: British children today spend less time outdoors than maximum security prisoners do (who have to be aired occasionally by law).
As a kid when our parents sent us outside to play in less ideal weather conditions (too cold, too hot, too muggy) we would just go to a friend’s house. They would do the same with us. We’d get a knock on the door and friend(s) would explain their parents made them come outside so we’d invite them in and play in our room. Ha ha!
Darn. After yesterday’s strip about the pumpkin I was hoping for another installment of the abominiable pumpkin man. I thought those strips were hilarious.

Was going to say something about not being at school, but forgot it’s Thanksgiving week and the kids are usually off…

She can’t go outside a play. There’s no wi-fi.
