On: The Suburb of the Future, Almost Here

Can your daughter go outside and play with her friends unsupervised? Does she have any friends?

[IncRnd → javabean22]

That's rude. She has many friends and sees kids her age almost everyday. She's too young to be unsupervised.

Let me ask you a question similar to what you just asked me, "Do you enjoy letting your family breathe the smog and pollution infested air that you live in? If they don't breathe the outside air, are they aware of the pollution and climate change that is killing the planet, caused by your car?" See how silly the kind of assumptions are that you made?

I don't have a car.

Thank you!

Wait....did you just use a silly assumption, not as an example that silly assumptions are possible, but as proof that his assumption was silly?

[IncRnd → mistermann]

That's silly. :-)

And now to something completely different.

It's not like modern city parents let their kids go out unsupervised these days

unless they live in a nice city. the city in live in has 34 million people and kids go out unsupervised just fine
