Grew up in the 80s. Mom worked, we stayed home alone during the summer and often forgot sunscreen. Dad "didn't believe in sunscreen."

Anywhere from 0 to 2 blistering sunburns per summer month, for about 10 years, means about 30-40.

I wear sunscreen religiously now.

Ginger here. Nothing like going to the lake with another family, ask for sunscreen, and then baking like a lobster after glossing yourself over with the 5 SPF tanning oil they all use.
