Unfortunately this didn't happen too long ago. At that age my friends and I spent all day on our own with no cell phones or any device to let our parents know where we were. A lot of parents that I know are too afraid to let their kids outside by themselves with smart phones or air tags today. I'm not going to say all physical spaces for kids don't exist anymore, but there do seem to be more limitations than in the past. Of course I'm just speaking of my own experience.
