No kidding!...just head for the woods and play youe ass off!
Sounds like my childhood. I slept outside in the woods more than more own bed during the summers. The biggest risk was an occasional tick to remove. I wish it were the same these days.
Once I finished my morning paper route, my mom didn't see me until sunset. even at 10, I'd grab my fishing pole and gun, hop on my bike and be gone.
Nowadays kids need 24/7 organization & management.
