Do kids just not do play dates anymore?

When I was a kid, I remember going to see my friends at least once a week, maybe three times a week.

But I have a 10-year-old who has probably had fewer than 10 dates in his life and a six-year-old who may have had none.

I feel like it's terrible, but other parents just don't seem to do it.

Am I missing something? Is this national? Is there anything we can do about it? Or is it for the best?
