[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. There are back exits to restaurants btw.[/quote] The paranoia is staggering. [/quote] As is the laziness. Seriously? Sending an eight year old in to accomplish an errand? If you must do that, at least get out of your car and stand close enough to observe your EIGHT year old 100% of the time she's in the store.[/quote] It’s actually significantly lazier to never parent your child and do everything for them because it’s easier in the moment. Teaching your child to do things on their own and develop independence and good judgement is hard. It takes lots of small steps before kids can build up good judgement and become independent adults. You’re stunting your child’s development with your paranoia. [/quote]
