I think it’s important for kids to have time to play with each other because it will have on reversible effects if all our children’s time is structured and without imagination. Just like the everybody wins a trophy generation this too will have its drawbacks.
I’m not a single parent. Heck, I’m not a parent. I follow this substack because I appreciate its literary conversation and book recommendations. The description of summer vacation at the beginning of this post made me remember the smell of my local library in the summer as I prayed for the appearance books by Gordon Korman and Carolyn Keene. I still remember the shame and fear when I had to explain why a certain Nancy Drew paperback doubled in size because I attempted to read it in the lake and there was an incident with a dear fly.
