[quote=Anonymous]I mostly agree with your premise. We live in a walkable neighborhood. To live here, we have to be OK with the fact that our house is smaller than most of our friends' houses. We never wanted the big McMansion, where school would be 3 or 4 miles away and you can't get anywhere without driving. As a result, our kids did have some independence earlier than their peers in the 'burbs. I think we were good at encouraging our kids to walk places in the neighborhood, get their permit as soon as they turned 16, and hold down jobs. We were bad at enforcing household chores. No one is perfect. [/quote]
