[quote=Anonymous]I think it is sad this question even has to be asked. 12yr old is one year away from a teen. Crossing busy streets? If not now, when? 13, 14, 15??? They are going to be DRIVING at 16yrs old. At least let them start crossing a road and gaining some independence. Not sure why most parents aren't teaching their kids basic life skills. So many people worry about grades and athletics but kids as old as 8 can't tie shoes or kids that are 12 can't cross a street? I just find it really weird how people parent these days, especially in this area. [/quote]
