Well that is what makes the world so interesting. Different views, opinions, thoughts, hopes, dreams, talents....
I didn't say I was perfect I said I did not think it was a good idea to let a child go barefoot in a parking lot.
Would you really allow your child to do that?
What about sailing around the world when they are 14?
Backpacking through Europe when they are 17?
Joining the military at 17?
Driving cross country at 17 for spring break with 5 other kids?
Going to an island or FL for spring break?
Being at the mall alone at 12 or 14 late at night?
Riding in a car with a boy you only met once at 15?
I have been a mom for 32 years and the choices you have to make are endless and get more frightening as they get older.
I don't know how old your kids are but it is a tough job and I wish you luck cause we all need it.
