[quote=Anonymous]We let our 8 yo "roam." That is we have a WhatsApp group of about 20 or so families who send out a message that they are sending their kid out to play at X place and the rest of the crew follow. They spend time like you would want 8 yo boys to spend time. They play or make up games with whatever type of sportsball they have around. They play soccer, baseball, wifle ball, kickball or some other game. My son has a watch that allows us to track him and to call him. The other parents send out messages when the kids move to one of their houses telling the others that they have X, Y, Z kid at their house. The kids show up at one of our houses in the neighborhood and we feed them, they play a bit and then they head back out, usually on bikes. We are in DC and our neighborhood has very clearly defined boundaries. The boys do not venture beyond the places they play or their houses.[/quote]
