A child -friendly city is also a city <br />with a bright future. Any city that fails to <br />attract and retain families is a city whosE <br />long-term economic prospects are bleak, <br />Only the most heartless would say we <br />should ignore children in city building. <br />But why should we seek to involve them <br />directly?
