Kids Hung Out In Candy Stores
You could go to neighborhood candy stores and get all of the goodies that your mother wouldn’t let you eat at home for pennies a piece. In little paper bags, you could transport it to your destination. Additionally, you could stop in and grab malted and egg cream soda, ice cream soda, or soda laden with sugar, and then hang out at the counter and consume the soda as grownups chill at the bar to do it all. People didn’t care where you went after school provided that it didn’t ruin your appetite, which was common when kids went in groups after school.

They Were Allowed To Ride Bikes Without Safety Accessories
The only way to go around without the assistance of a parent was to rely on an older sibling or to ride your bicycle. As a child, learning to ride a bike with your father was an important life milestone. You fell because your parents anticipated you to, so they forced you get back on the bike and quit complaining about your skinned knees and elbows. To get out and ride with other kids, you had to learn how to do it on your own first. Everyone, including our motorcycle-riding big brothers, had no idea that wearing a helmet was a legal requirement, but it is today.
