    A few weeks ago, Adam Washington was tossing a football with his son, 14, at a park at Ardmore, Pennsylvania. Not too far away — but far enough to avoid being bonked by a ball — his wife was pushing their toddler in the swings. And then two Lower Merion Township Police Department police cars pulled up. “I said to my wife, ‘I think they’re going to come down and give us a hard time.’ And she said, ‘For what?’ And I said, ‘For throwing this ball in the park.'”Mr. Washington was right.

9yo (my firstborn) wanted to try a @LetGrowOrg type excursion so he went into Publix for milk and eggs. “Kevin Mcalister did it and he was only 8!” Took five minutes and was so proud of himself! He said the checkout lady told him she was proud of him, too 🥹 https://t.co/tb3JIl1FgK
