[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Could you start by meeting her halfway? Are there other children who walk, or who might also walk if she walked? Could she ride her bike? To the PP at 14:53, when I was in elementary school, before cable TV, every kid walked, starting in kindergarten. Every kid. If you had said to the parents that an 8-year-old is not old enough to walk 10 blocks on her own, their jaws would have dropped in astonishment.[/quote] The "way we did it when we were kids" argument just doesn't fly. Sorry. [/quote] Except that it should fly, because statistically, the world is much, much safer now. [/quote]
