[quote=Anonymous]I would let DS go to the park by our house, with a friend, solo now. He is 8. I would not let him go to the school to play on the playground solo with a friend. It is 4 blocks further away and that distance makes me a bit more worried if he gets hurt and needs help. the other park is 2 blocks from our house, close enough by that I would think his friend could get to us or get someone who could get to us quickly enough. I think we will aim for an inexpensive watch with texting or cell service for when we get to the point that he is going places solo. I know that I went solo a ton as a kid without such technology and I realize now how much of a leap of faith that was for my parents. [/quote]
