i saw 5 year old children using the bus alone late at night in austria. i saw children playing at a park at 1am on a weeknight here in iceland in the middle of summer. my parents gave me a lot of freedom as a child as did they with my brother and i seem to recall my friends having the same treatment. yes, things are a little more restricted these days, but on the whole and in most places children still have their freedom. i guess there would be some issues in a plce like central new york but then i wonder what parent would raise their child there anway?
