[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've had two kids go over the years.  They both said it was boring--long lines, not many rides.  I wasn't excited about the lack of supervision (my assumption, but I"ve never been in person) but it was fine.  [/quote]

Lack of supervision for a 5th grader??  :shock:  Mine has been off in the neighborhood since they were 8 and doing whatever kids do.  Just like YOU did when you were a kid.  Did Mommy and Daddy supervise you all the time in 5th grade?   Stop the coddling.

Our class trip was to Dorney Park in PA for 5th grade.  No cell phones.  We knew of 4 posts in the park to locate a teacher or chaperone if we needed something.  Otherwise, we were on our own all day.  Best trip ever.  Now 5th grade trips can only be to boring historic areas with a chaperone per 5 kids handing out handy wipes and feeding them apple slices.  Pretty pathetic how parents have changed.

If I were a predator, a lightly chaperoned, informal picnic of a thousand ten year olds would seem like the place I'd want to be![/quote]

That is why your TEACH your kids about predators when they are young, you idiot. [b]Not follow your 12yr old around like a nut job.   If your 5th grader is dumb enough to fall for the[/b] "I have candy in my car, leave your friends and come with me" than that is absolutely all your fault as a parent.

Abductions by strangers is only 1% of all abductions.

Most predators pick up college students, not 5th graders.  So.... I guess University of Maryland Online College is where your kids are "going."

There are more sexual assaults IN Montgomery County schools by employees than there would be by some random stranger who knew to head into the fairground for a Patrol Picnic

This is the safest time to live in America for children

You are fear freak.  Always finding the one national news story and thinking it happens everywhere. Why is it a national news story again?  Because it rarely happens.  But are all the sexual assaults in MCPS national news stories? No.  But yet, you are still sending your kid to school every day without you?  Why?

If your 5th grader it's 12, I'm not sure I'd be calling anyone else's kid dumb. [/quote]
