On the street here (small village, cul-de-sac, almost no traffic)
playing out is the norm, and we have three play areas - one on the
street, one 2 minutes walk away and another (large enough for a soccer
pitch) 5 minutes away. It's normal here for children to play out, and
for cats to come and go as they wish.

Well, it's wonderful that you live in a small, enclosed area where people
can feel comfortable allowing their children and animals to roam free;

I'm
sure they greatly enjoy it. Unfortunately, not all areas are safe for

that
sort of thing, which is why it always has to be an individual decision,

with
the children and animals' best interests (primarily safety) at heart.


When I was moving I deliberately choose this kind of place to live in as
I wanted somewhere safe for the cats to go out. And yes - we all enjoy
going out and about.

I think that's terrific you had that option.


In the UK most people probably do, except for hard-bitten city-centre
dwellers and most of us can't afford to live there.

It's kind of funny, but except for the big, big towns, it's cheaper here to
live in the city and there are practically no job ops in the more rural
areas. If only. Ah well. We does what we can.
