Kids are safe.
The news stories are alarming and overwhelming! But the statistics are incredibly reassuring. Our kids are safer from
- child abduction
- car vs pedestrian accidents
- bicycle riding deaths
- violent crime is less than when most parents were kids
As a matter of fact, there has never been a safer time to be a kid in America.
And we know that kids learn the most when they get to try. Try walking to a friends house, asking for something in a store, facing decisions, solving problems. Right? So, it’s time to
take one step back.
Kids are more than ready to step up and amaze us.
In the comments, will you leave a story of a time you let a child do something without supervision?
