[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't really think it matters whether kids that age used to be able to walk around on their own in the past. Kids that age used to be able to hold jobs at factories in the past. They did it successfully, much of the time. But society decided that wasn't what most people felt that kids should be doing.[/quote] Charles Dickens was working in a factory and living in a boarding house when he was about nine because his dad was in debtors prison. He went on to lead a pretty successful life, so maybe that would be a good route for a lot of kids today. A little self-reliance and independence is a good thing. [/quote] Good ole Charlie was a horrible person who kicked his wife out of his house moved in his mistress and 9 out of his 10 children never saw their mother again. Good example of how having callous cold parents can make somebody a horrible parent and life partner. But he had fame and fortune so it's ok.[/quote]
