I was walking down the street in Utrecht and laughed at what I saw. Kids playing alone in the streets. Adults and kids playing football at a city centre.
When I was 10 I used to do that. But these days kids are over protected. I was curious about why. Crime rates of violence offences are similar. They are definitely not non existent.
Someone joked that this is a country that didn't have Margaret Thatcher. I laughed. The Netherlands has high taxes, great benefits, social housing. And has been in recovery for a while.
Why does two countries with similar culture and language can differ so much. |
