From not wearing seatbelts and sitting in the back of station wagons, to playing in the ocean unsupervised and being home alone all the time, it's a miracle Gen X'ers are alive today.

!!! They just figured I'd go to sleep in the backseat. Who does that?! They figured out I was awake when they got scared and popcorn went flying, and I laughed.""When I was 6, a neighbor kid was literally kidnapped at gunpoint by a stranger. And my dad would still kick us out of the house all day to 'play' and lock the door.

But when he came out with us, he’d tie the sled up to the back of the three-wheeler and pull us around the dirt roads. 😅 How am I alive?""Summer of 1983, 10 years old, and my mom allowed me to babysit my 9-year-old brother and the neighbor's kids while their mom worked. One was 5; the other was 3. I made $40 per week and thought I was straight ballin', LOL.""We were never supervised. I never went to daycare, and both of my parents worked.

To be fair, though, I did it and never got bullied again...but I know that wouldn't be an option for every kid.""We lived near the beach, and in the summer, my twentysomething mom would take us to the beach, slather 'suntan lotion' on us, and plop down on a towel to talk to her best friend. We played in the waves pretty much unsupervised. More than once, I got in a situation that could have ended with me drowning.

He cut that shit out real quick after he left us alone at home to go get a case of beer. In the half-hour he was gone, I’d managed to call and hang up on 911 because I’d just learned about it and wanted to make sure it worked. He pulled into the driveway behind a state trooper who wasted no time screaming at him about why he’d left us home alone.""When I was a baby, my dad was a single father.
