[quote=Anonymous]I was born in the 80's I feel like my generation was one of the last ones to actually get to play outside without adult supervision. I think our culture's obsession with stranger danger is just so counter f productive when statistically children are much more likely to be abused by a person they know and trust. It's sickening to see the number of people who defended Sandusky and Nassar because they were successful groomers(yes it's time to reclaim that word to describe actual predators). They got away with hurting children for so long because they were on the surface they seemed like nice people. I would love to give my children more independence to run the neighborhood and develop their self reliance and problem solving skills but it is hard to be the only person in the neighborhood who's really willing to do that.
