[quote=Anonymous]Your rules are basically ok but I'd have him check in every hour and be flexible with that. DS and his friends do it pretty consistently but do not have cell phones. They range from 8-10. All of them wear mostly athletic clothes and the phones would be lost in a day. Any family in my neighborhood would let any child use their phone to check in. I would not make him call to switch houses. It's too much and kids here run from one house to another all weekend. It's good to check before going into a new house of a family you don't know. Give limits on how far they can go and hold off on bike riding until you are comfortable. [/quote]
