I was never afraid, even as a child. At age 3 my parents would find my bed empty and me outside alone in the dark playing with my doggies.

@ProdigalSummer I guess you didnt watch enough horror movies or phantom related reality shows.
@Dan193 i was born in rural WV. I didn’t watch much tv growing up, especially in the early years. We still didn’t have cable hookup available when I moved away in the early 90’s.

@ProdigalSummer I feel like you probably had a happier childhood than most of us millenials
@Dan193 i like to think so and tried to mirror that same experience in my own children. Their tv/electronics time was very limited in the early years and they were encouraged to play outside as much as possible in all kinds of weather. Now that they’re older teens, they’re allowed to monitor their own time. They balance it with things like camping, hiking, and horseback riding. I think it’s worked out fairly well so far.
