-Broke his leg after playing in his friends jungle gym. No one helped him for hours. Apparantly people in the 50's were convinded everything was and would be fine.
-Parents took him to see manhattan and mistakingly booked a stay at a hotel in harlem because of its reasonable price. After police told them they should probably leave and stay somewhere nicer Bill's father decided to stay anyways because the price was really quite reasonable.
-Watching television a transmission came in from the presidency and kennedy began speaking in a grave tone. The russians were building missile silos in cuba and ordered Khrushchev to cease construction or face the might that is america (Conviently ignoring the fact that america had silos built near russia). The americans set up a naval blockade around a cuba and a soviet ship came to challenge it. If the soviet ship advanced to close kennedy would order fire upon it. If he had gone through with sinking the ship it may very well have been the beginning of world war three. From that moment onward he had never trusted adults.
-Parents sent their kids to a run-down theme park, that kids would beg not to go to, to keep them occupied. This place was dreaded and extremely dangerous to be in alone. The kids from the schools that were not as a priviliged had a deep hatred for those who were and so stole from them and abused them. The ride supervisors did not follow any sort of safety protocol and would often leave kids on rides for overly extended periods of time.
