[quote=Anonymous]My kids are 7 and 10. I'm from Queens - so, a mix of suburbs and city. Now living in the DC burbs - as burb-y as it gets. It's been wonderful. So many parks and green space. Quick drive to the city or farmland so they get a variety of experience. This year with everything going on, I'm perfectly fine with them running over to friends houses alone; something we wouldn't have allowed in Queens, so they're getting a good taste of independence. I do worry they'll be more limited when they're teens - I lived for jumping on the bus or subway and going wherever I wanted. But I guess they get licenses and cars earlier here. It's still a suburb of a city so they can take a train in at some point. We have learned to like the slower pace, and LOVE the space. [/quote]
