Children's Creativity is the Constant, Not Environment
Sometimes I think back to childhood memories that could only happen in the suburbs or country like the summer my younger brother and I cut the grass really short and strung up our badminton net low to the ground to recreate wimbleton and think that would be a terrible thing to deprive a child born in the city of. But then again, everyone creates their own memories wherever they are and even in the 'burbs my children would surely have a very different experience than I did. Also, parents are generally not particularly fond of coming home from work to see their kids have applied creative landscaping to their yards.

Want to Keep It? Then Keep It Locked Up!
Here in NYC even the homeless lock things up. Today I observed a stolen laundry cart (like the ones they use at hospitals to collect robes) tethered to a parking sign using a bicycle U-locked in Hell's Kitchen.
