Expect different, not necessarily less.

The context is obvious: Parents get less house time, do more house-irrelevant things during said time, and most importantly - the outside is more hostile, so more and more kids life is organized and initiated by parents.

Where is the evidence that suggests outside is more hostile?

Aren't our cities, generally speaking, safer now than they were at most times in the past?

They are. It's just that outrage media is 100x more powerful and present and as a result every small crime and mishap is shouted from the rooftops 24x7.
