[quote=Anonymous]Caught a bit of this on Youtube. Basically it's a Japanese TV show called "My First Errand" or something like that, and it profiles Japanese kids age 3-6 or so who are sent out by their parents to run errands for the family. Apparently in Japan it's a rite of passage for a toddler to be sent out for an errand for the family, and the sight of a very young child on their own running tasks around the city is not that uncommon. Here is a cute, partially subtitled version of a brother and sister doing the grocery shopping. Made me a bit sad knowing that it isn't quite as safe to do this in the USA.
