[quote=doodlebug]https://www.thestar.com/life/2016/09/13/if-you-leave-your-kids-alone-its-not-predatory-strangers-who-are-a-risk.html A friend of mine posted this article on Facebook and it's an interesting read (IMO.) It essentially says that people's perceived level of danger is tied to whether they think something is immoral and that kids are in more danger from do-gooders who think they're helping than from actual dangerous people or situations. Would love to hear other people's thoughts. I know I played alone and didn't necessarily tell anyone where I was going as a kid, and I was definitely left alone in the car (with nothing to do! The horror!) while my mom shopped or ran other errands. I hated it but that doesn't mean that it was dangerous...just unkind. (Though as an adult I can appreciate why she left me rather than take me.)[/quote]
