[quote=Anonymous]The message the actions of CPS sends to parents is that children cannot play outside. My kids ride bikes all the time in our neighborhood without my supervision. They go exploring and build forts in the wooded area close by. My son even broke both of his arms while riding his bike. He walked home, we went to emergency room, he was fine. It builds character, self sufficenty, strong kids. As a kid, I was outside playing all the time. My curfew was the streets lights coming on or when I was hungry and I turned out just fine. My kids will not sit in the house on a beautiful day. They will be outside playing and I may or may not be out supervising them. If you feel the need to hover over your children at all times, that's great. I don't feel the need to. We enjoy living our lives but not fretting over all the bad things that could happen that I may or may not be able to prevent. [/quote]
