[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parents are uptight about activities, grades, and social schedules in this sub, yet let their kids play dangerous sports, go to sleepovers, leave them home alone, and let them roam neighborhoods all in elementary. I think a lot of the elder millennials want their child to have a similar childhood they had, but that's just not realistic. People drive crazier, I wouldn't let my kids bike in the neighborhood roads the way I used to. We know the risks of sleepovers. And I bet half these kids staying home alone can't give their sibling CPR if they choke on a snack or know not to put water on a grease fire... They are uptight about social status stuff, and don't care about the actual safety of their children. It's like they are little social props. [/quote] Because many of us know that creativity comes from autonomy. Autonomy comes from freedom. Clearly you want your kids to be cogs in someone else’s wheel. You do you - stay out of judgement.[/quote]
