[quote=Anonymous]I certainly wouldn't worry about abductions, if that's what you're getting at, but I wouldn't let a 6-year old play in a group like this without adult supervision. In my experience this type of situation never goes well. I'd start allowing more independence at the earliest 7 years old, but for my kids I think it was more like 8 when I was comfortable with this type of thing. They don't have enough judgement before that, and you can't trust older kids to keep them safe or treat them well unless they're siblings. On the other hand if it's a few similarly aged kids, I think it's fine in your own yard or otherwise close enough that you can just pop out and check on them.[/quote]
