[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parents don't raise their own kids and the places they ship them off to (daycare, after school care, etc) have an interest in keeping the kids developmentally stunted. They're told to not think for themselves, just follow the rules, don't do anything out of the ordinary, etc. Those kids never learn to be safe on their own and use good judgement. When we were younger, we were walking home by ourselves before 10 years old, even looking after younger siblings, and looking after ourselves at home until parents got home from work. We roamed the neighborhoods on bikes. [b]All of this developed independences and generally also better judgement as the kids got older[/b].[/quote] Apparently not since now we're intentionally stunting our children.[/quote]
