Kapura parent
i came in here on the side of child independance, but the youngest ages involved were a lot younger than i'm comfortable with. frankly, i think that if a kid is under 4 years old, there should be an adult near-at-hand.
I agree. I for one was riding my bike all around the neighborhood as a kid, going everywhere. I guess starting in 1st grade it was walking around apartment complex and then we got. a house in 2nd grade, and probably 3rd grade we were off on our bikes with "boundaries" our parents said we couldn't go past. A 4 year old, hell even a 6/7 year old I just couldn't trust to make a proper decision, even with older siblings around.
Also, the way this article reads, this lady just seems like a pain in the a* and clearly her neighbors do not like her. The best bet is for them to move...
