[quote=Anonymous]I think that keeping your child from playing with another child because they are mature is absurd. I know that your child is the absolute most important thing to you, but think about the other child for just a second. As I was growing up, I was "independent and mature". My parents were very involved, and I had an extremely close relationship with my Dad. Other parents and children had the same mentality of isolating me, or that independent child, which makes it so that child is forced to mature even more and grow even more independent. If the people in their world make it so they can't have friends due to isolation, they are setting that child up to have a horrible childhood/young adult-hood, because trust me, little socialization in pre-school and kindergarten leads to horrible social skills and anxiety issues in the future. I obviously am not the "Parental Rules Ultimatum Person", but still take the idea in to account that children is our species future chance of survival, so we need to make sure they all turn out okay, and isolating the few that are wise beyond their years is dampening what could be some of the most intelligent people of the next generation.
