I wish there were a way to have an observer account, and I didn't need to confirm my name/address. It's a good method for determining which neighbors to avoid.

Wildly excited about this next generation of southsiders. That's innovation right there.

I came across some kids who had lashed a hand truck to a red wagon and were at the top of a steep hill discussing who would go first.

Idk about you guys. But it’s nice to see kids off the VIDEO GAMES and back outside exploring and playing like the good ole days!

I’m not worried about the kids — the adults however

Hey kids, you ever heard of the "naked fire jump with fireworks tied to your peepee and up your butt tiktok challenge"?

Yeah, and we can't have a yearly carnival down there anymore because "it was too dangerous" gtfo.

No no no. They're doing this all wrong. Your supposed to hold the bottle rocket with your butt cheeks then light it. Amateurs.

Can't wait for the usual crowd to show up and post about how no one should go to South Side because kids are killing people with fireworks.

Id rather my kid sit in front of the TV shooting other people in a video game than blowing his junk off jumping over a fire with explosives strapped to his belt.

Just me I guess.

It warms the heart knowing that kids are still getting up to stupid shit outside.

Warms the cockles of my heart to hear kids are playing outside without any helicopter parents (it maybe even warms the subcockle area).

The last thing they need are nosy helicopter strangers. Keep it moving, JB.

That’s called childhood. When they get older it’s called a career if it is on film.

I see this as a 100% self-correcting problem. Moreover, it's GENERATIONALLY self-correcting - the winning child will not produce more "winners."

Godspeed kids. It sounds like a hell of a lot of fun, to be honest.

Inventing new games practices innovation and helps children express leadership capabilities and creativity, and blowing off your junk with fireworks builds character.

I was really worried about this younger generation until I saw this post. It’s almost impossible for all of them to be pussies.

I don’t know if any of this is true and I don’t care. It’s been a crappy day and I’d like to thank everyone on this thread for giving me a good laugh and helping to get me through the rest of this day. A salute to all of you!

I’m bothered that things like this are happening, and also that there’s a movie out right now called Cocaine Bear.

I had friends from Lebo growing up. One time we climbed in that sewer drain and crawled all the way to the creek from the park. Spiders everywhere. One of the kids was separated and the fire department had to come pull him out through another manhole.

I think it’s more of a horseshoe theory of social media, where Reddit and Nextdoor are both comprised of people who have never been outside, but the ones on Reddit were by choice and the ones on Nextdoor were because mom thought it was too unsafe

I don't think functional families instill the kind of values that lead people to put surveillance cameras everywhere, freely share footage of people who are just walking down the sidewalk, and accuse anyone who looks different of malicious intentions
