America Is Getting Lonelier and More Indoorsy. That's Not a Coincidence

I wonder what would happen thirty years after a society decided it wasn’t safe to let kids “go play outside”.

Would people associate the outdoors with discomfort and danger? Would they forget how to explore and be curious? Would they have no nostalgia to inform them of what they’re missing?

Maybe we’re finding out?

I think this is it - Plus for anyone in a car-centric suburb there really isn't that much outside until you can drive
