You are in a family that has a parent with enough free time to drive kids around, as opposed to both parents having 4.5 jobs/hustles between them?
Cars + insurance + gas now cost as much as houses did 30 years ago.
Also, if you think your kids can just walk or bike or take the bus, go do a websearch for ‘parents arrested for child neglect for letting their kids walk 1/2 a mile home from school’ or something like that.
If you’re not from the US, well then much of this probably isn’t the case, or has viable alternatives.
If you are from the US, uh… yeah all this is valid, you don’t understand how privileged you are.
Some US states/cities are now just getting rid of public school busses.
All that money went to grants for private schools instead.
But you’ll probably still get CPS called on you if your kid(s) is(are) consistently truant.
…
All that being said, raising your kids as off of Roblox, Fortnite, Tiktok as possible… that is a genuienly good thing to do.
Simply put, not everyone gets do to everything. It sucks but that’s the unfortunate state of life.
The original post is taking about spaces. Locations. Whether or not you have time or a car or whatever has nothing to do with the original post. My point is locations as per the original post do exist and the original post says there are none at all.
This is true, this is fact. Your ability to utilize a space has a lot of factors but the existence of them doesn’t.
Can you get to all that stuff without a car?

They are wretched hives of scum and villainy.

Simply put, we think you’re in a bubble. Not everywhere has parks.
