"FREE RANGE KIDS" has become a national movement, sparked by

the incredible response to Lenore Skenazy's piece about allowing

her 9-year-old ride the subway alone in NYC. Parent groups argued

about it, bloggers blogged and the media jumped all over it. This

book debunks dangerous myths and advocates rational care for safe

and independent kids, using the Range Parenting Commandments,

including: Know When to Worry (And Not) -- Playdates and Axe

Murders: How to Tell the Difference Never Listen to Experts -- Who

Says You Are Doing Everything Wrong. Them. Who knows less than you

do about you and your kids. Them Eat Chocolate -- Give Halloween

Back to the Trick or Treaters. There's never been a single case of

a razor blade in an Apple in history. Never. Turn off the 24 Hour

NewsTURN OFF THE 24 HOUR NEWS -- Go Easy on "Law and Order" too.

The inflammatory hysteria will make you crazy. Stop Thinking Like a

Lawyer -- Some aspects of normal life will not lead to litigation.

Study History -- Your 10-year-old Would Have Been Forging Horse

Shoes (or at least delivering papers) Fail-- It's the New Succeed.

How else are you going to learn. Listen to Your Kids -- They're

sick of Being Babied (except the actual babies, of course) Listen

to Your Parents -- They raised you, right? And you're still alive.

Relax-- Not every little thing you do impacts your child's

development, unless you smother or inspire rebellion A lot of

parents today, Skenazy says, see no difference between letting

their kids walk to school and letting them walk through a firing

range. Any risk is seen as too much risk. But if you try to prevent

every possible danger or difficult in your child's everyday life,

that child never gets a chance to grow up. We parents have to

realize that the greatest risk of all just might be trying to raise

a child who never encounters choice or independence. This book

strikes a happy balance for safe and self-reliant kids who must

ultimately live without us.

perceptive, persuasive, and above all, sensible."

Dr Spock’s Baby and Child

Care, 8th Edition.

"

Free-Range Kids

is the best kind of manifesto: smart,

funny, rigorous, sane, impassioned, and bristling with common

sense. If you’re a parent, or planning to become one, read this

book. You have nothing to lose–apart from your anxiety."

In Praise of Slowness

Under

Pressure

on overcoming irrational suspicions and, finally, differentiating

between an axe murderer and a play date!"

Nanny

State.

"

Free-Range Kids

makes the perfect baby shower

gift."
