'Parents who, during school holidays, kick the 7, 8 or 9 year old out first thing, without a key, and don't expect to see them again till later at night '
This used to happen to me, over 40 years ago. I learned from it that my parents didn't want me around. Profound, eh.

I had an ace time when I was kicked out for the day. I used to climb trees, see how far I could walk before I decided I had to start walking home. Tried to find new places that I have never been to before. If everyone kicked their kids out on a sunny day there wouldn't be so many fat ugly kids about.

Less fat kids, yeah - but how does climbing a tree make you less ugly?
