Thank you answers. Much depends on the distance between school and home, the need for transport and how you prepare the child to do so. At some point in time, parents should stop to interfere in the life of the child and start trust adolescent as best friend. However, we know that the responsibility lies with the parents, and we need to control the situation. I need always to know where my children are, http://www.phonespyapps.com/spy-on-your-kid especially when they say they are going to ride a bike. I choose to use modern technological possibilities. First, it takes a few hours, then more - per day. And at some point, I should be ready to allow my children to go to the countryside with an overnight stay or visit another city.
I work to attempt to form my good habits all the time. I can not control what my teens do or eat now, it's their time for new experiments. But we ourselves are forming their own tastes, and healthy food should be delicious and prepared with love. Also: While there are interesting hobby, sport, nature, creativity, plans, the minimum time for movies and shows.
Cognitive behavioral therapy is the best! It helps even with the super-stressful life stages. I had panic disorder, and I started having panic attacks in my 15 years. Support and love of family, full life, outdoor recreation are very important. A person should know it's common and he can get help to deal with everything.
At this age (6-7 years), the boy becomes a very interesting and useful to communicate with his father: relax together, to work or to engage in a hobby. You can arrange a holiday of sport: go to the match, or the first lesson in karate, for the teacher-man was an inspiration for him.
Always deal with good people, especially children, and try to be good and kind. This is my rule. Other kids move too and it might be nice to keep in touch after or at least have fun memories and hope to meet someday in the future! ))
We pay 15 when he found absolutely the right person. I come from Eastern Europe, I would like to bring my relatives, but I live too far away. ))
