Less helicopter parenting.
GenX were allowed to be latchkey kids and roam free. Later generations got weird about parenting and safety.

Gen x IS the later generation raising their kids super protectively. And we donβt even know why it turned that way.

Because journalism started becoming fear bait. They raised ratings by making people scared to be outside, or think if they let their eyes off their kids for a second, theyβll be taken (even though itβs far more likely theyβll be killed in a car accident, or abused by someone they know).
Media did it.

That is why Mom used to tell me not to get kidnapped.
