wow i havent seen this in quite awhile..
this thread got hijacked or at least pushed off the wrong side of the cliff..
i still stand origanl question .. about running 2 block from your house. or 5 min gone from them.. wether that be to the garage or outside..
i agree with what many people said here about the 1.5 year old not being able to defend himself and if something bad happened while he was playing in the yard....
i will let him play in the yard with his brother when the weather gets better.. i have considered all possiblitys and i conlcluded that my front yard in the rural town i live in is safe enought for that.
if i lived in a city of any size hell no..
if the old guy across the streeet didnt sit in hs lawn cahir till plenty past dark evrey single day that may change my mind.. but like i said in my situation i belive it is ok.
what originanlly promted me to write this was i ran to the post office i was gone like 4 min the kids were in the house. alone. those of you who dont think kids can be responsible for 4 min probally have the kind fo kids that i hate.. ( not mine) or other wise know as all other kids..
anyway im not suggesting my 1.5 yr old is responsilbe like a 10 yr old. however he is either smart enough to not the things we tell him not to do. or too stupid to care.
his brother is much the same way..
anyway.. it is nice to see peopel still readign this thread..
wish it got back to the 5 min thing not over night and outside all day or whatever.
