RE: I've Decided To Raise "Free-Range" Children

This is how I grew up. We ran the neighborhood, climbed trees, played ball and got dirty. We knew our boundaries and came home for dinner at 6:00. We watched TV maybe for an hour an evening on weekends. It's a shame kids are glued to eletronics and don't get to run like we did. As a teen, I walked for hours at night alone. I loved the night sounds and the moon. I did get to a place where some guys in trucks or cars slowed to offer me a ride, which I declined, and then decided I could no longer take those night walks alone. I'll never forget the freedom and peace.

I agree. I hate seeing kids glued to screens instead of actually playing and interacting with others. It's sad that we feel so fearful of being outside that we hide away inside. Times have definitely changed but not for the better.
