Ha, we were left to our own devices and I think it was to our advantage. 70s moms. I remember when I was about 10 my buddies came over and asked if I wanted to go night fishing with them down at the pier on the bay. My mom said "sure, but be back by 10:30pm. Have fun." So off we went walking about a mile with our fishing gear in the dark. Now I don't think that would happen and that's kind of a problem.
