[quote=Anonymous]I haven’t read the responses but does your kid want to walk around a museum alone? I would say every kid is different but about tween age and the kid’s interest in doing that would indicate readiness. I have a 14 yr old son without any street smarts and he walked around a museum with a friend and had trouble navigating everything. Wanted me to “pick them up” for lunch. Literally thought I was sitting in the car at his beck and call and couldn’t navigate lunch on his own with a friend (even though I gave him money) and then could barely find me at a museum next door without getting lost. You don’t want that. The earlier you can foster independence the better.[/quote]
