[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Because you can't go outside ever? That's sad. Do you have a yard? I let my 4 and 6 yo play out in the yard while I make dinner. I leave a window open and listen for them. They know to stay in the side of the yard I can see them in. If they want to go ride bikes on the street or whatever, I go out front and hang out in the front yard where I can see them. What's the big deal? I have a job too. You're not THAT busy.[/quote] I CAN go outside and "hang out" and watch them. I just don't think it is necessary once kids are school aged. A 4 year old sure needs supervision. But not necessarily by an adult. We have a park just down the street and I send them to play there. I do not think it is dangerous. My parents raised me this same way. My mother would have died laughing if someone expected her to watch school aged children play instead of cook dinner. [/quote]
