What age do you let your kids run around the neighborhood..

[London-Dad]

When I was a kid, I always roamed the neighborhood with my friends.

My brothers and I grew up in Old South (I'm currently living there again) During the 70's when we were kids, we roamed the neighborhood freely. Thames Park was our back yard. We, on occassion, found our way down town. Yes, good times!

Getting either of my kids to go outside and play is like pulling teeth!
Wait a minute, worse, it's like taking their TV or computer away from them.
