It seems like there must be neighborhoods in America with a pack of kids running around, safely watched over (from a distance) by neighborhood moms, mailmen, etc, but I don't think those neighborhoods are in South LA.
Maybe in Wisconsin or something.
Is that just my latent racism/classism making me think that?
Funny thing is, the poorer parts of our society already let their kids do this.

They probably exist. I bet Zachary has neighborhoods like it. You probably wouldn't want to allow them to run around if you live in the Garden District, though. That seems a bit like you're a glutton for punishment.

there is a group of kids that plays all day, everyday on my street right now
age ranges from 6ish to 10ish
I like seeing the kids play in the streets, makes it feel like a neighborhood

I was in Seattle some months ago and I saw something I have not seen in the South in decades, it was abut 3 PM, and I noticed there were school aged kids all the way from 6 or 7 years old to teenagers walking everywhere, it seemed very odd to me, and then I realized school had let out and these kids were all walking home from school.
