RE: Free Range Kids - Should a Parent Have the Right to Determine their Child’s Readiness for Independency and Limited Supervision?
That was very interesting, @crosheille. So what age are young people considered to be able to look after themselves without supervision ?
In the Uk you're not supposed to leave children by themselves if they're younger than 15 I believe.
I feel we should prepare children from a young age to fend for themselves by creating the right conditions according to factors like their age and geographical location.
We live in the countryside so there are issues like transport and over dependency on car rides...
That’s a good question @cryptocariad. I’m not sure what age the CPS would advise but I think it should depend on what the parent feels. We know our kids better than anyone and should have the liberty to decide that.
I totally agree with this statement!
