    Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! For giving me the support to “let my kids be kids!!”

    Free Range Kids is more than a book, it’s a bible. It is TRUTH AGAINST THE WORLD and that’s no mistake. Want to seek her out just to give her a hug and look into her eyes to see the clear and bright sunshine of truth.

    It is called Napolianic Law – guilty until proven inicent as opposed to inicent until proven guilty…

    Well, we have the catholic church to thank for the pediphelia legislation in England or where-ever.

    I agreed with most of the things she said.I see parents not let their kids do anything I have a 5 yr old who we try to give some freedom ( age appropriate)

    Only thing I didn’t agree with is the leaving your young child in car I think up until a certain age it should be illegal. If a child is older than 6 or 7 they should be able to be in a car while you run in to get milk at the grocery store.

    I also think kids should be able to sell candies door to door in your neighborhood as long as its a safe neighborhood.

    I think you end up having 2 kinds of parents either they don’t have a clue where their children are or they hover over their children constantly. I think our country needs some balance!
