I dunno, I live in suburbia and our kids manage to spend a lot of time outside with neighborhood kids. It’s a nice change of pace over the same neighborhood 10 years ago. The neighborhood is starting to turn over generationally and there are a lot more people outside now.
I feel extremely sorry for you of there’s actually zero green space around you other than shopping. Heck, even if you’re in NYC you’re not that far from a park.
What is there for them to do n outside?
Dodge traffic, get assaulted by constant advertising, get sunburned, encounter the great unwashed masses of humanity. Or get coffee. I dunno.
Have a conversation? Go for a walk? Play one of many different types of non-sport or sport games? Generally hang out. The possibility are endless.
Maybe once they get to college. They sure aren’t doing that in suburban hell

Sounds expensive.
Being outside should be free?
That’s called “loitering”.

Outside costs me $100+ every time.
Haha, how do you manage to do this?
Bocce Ball. That game is fucking awesome.
Parks and libraries in the US today are more badass than when I was a kid. My kids love them.
