[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] There is a huge difference between a 10 year old and 6 year old. I have a 5 year old and there is no way I'd let her walk to a playground, play and walk home again. As parents it is our responsibility to take her and supervise. You can teach independence and responsibility by showing, working with your kids and so much more. It isn't just about them doing things alone at a very young age and hoping for the best.[/quote] Nobody has advocated children doing things alone at a very young age and hope for the best. If you don't think that your five-year-old is ready to walk to a playground, play, and walk home again, then don't have her do it. You should do what's right for you and your daughter. Other parents, with other children, at other playgrounds, may make different decisions that are right for them.[/quote]
