[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a 24 year old. The kids that went to Caribou (like starbucks but what was near his school) in 6th grade were the same kids that were smoking pot in 9th grade (normal in 11th not in 9th) and going to weekend music festivals in 11th and 12th (normal in college not in high school) Kids need for adventure and independence increases yearly. Start with the mall independence and starbucks independence in 8th not 6th if you can. They will grow up fast enough. [/quote] Ah yes, Caribou coffee, the ultimate gateway drug :roll: [/quote] They go so fast from brown sugar in their coffee to in their veins. My how time flys. [/quote] DP here. PPs are joking but I can see what the PP meant by not letting your child rush through these steps of independent adventures. It is human nature to want to do more and more so letting your kid have it all to soon can lead to a faster pace of chasing the next thrill. I know from our own experience.[/quote]
