[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These parents seem hell bent on scarring their kids. If they are so ideologically committed to being free range, then they need to move to a neighborhood where it is appropriate and acccepted. Downtown Silver Spring does not meet that description. If these kods were in a quiet neighborhood or [b]in a nearby park with a lot of othet friends and neighbors[/b], or even just taking a short walk to school, that would be fine. But alone in a metro downtown? Not ok. That might be appropriate starting at 13, but not a 10 and 6 year old. [/quote] The kids were actually walking to a nearby park. I'm also interested to hear from other parents who live in Silver Spring whether it's such a dangerous neighborhood that kids shouldn't be allowed to walk around without parental supervision until they're 13. I've visited the area, and it doesn't seem like a war zone to me.[/quote]
