[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A guy at my local Starbucks approached an eight grader and asked her whether she could hold the leash of his puppy, and then later to walk the puppy to his car. Luckily she was smart enough to decline. So no. [/quote] That's not an argument against ever letting your kid out of sight. It's an argument for planning to give your kids independence by teaching them the skills necessary to manage it. This 8th grader knew what to do because her parents had started teaching and preparing her at a younger age.[/quote]
