We seem less tolerant of kids these days, and more tolerant of dogs.

The other day an unleashed dog ran into my yard from the adjacent park and the woman escorting it informed me that I should build a fence!
Yeah I like dogs, but growing up we treated them as a home and backyard pet only, having them run around in neighborhood or bringing to stores or restaurants(!) would have been unthinkable. I really don't get it.
I didn't even have a problem with the dog being there. The lady was put out that she had to fight through some brambles to come over and retrieve it.
