  I find it soothly bizarre. How do they attend school? they are driven to it? I said this in another comment, but I find Anglo-Saxon culture to unduly assume that children are completely incompetent. https://edition.cnn.com/2014/07/21/living/mom-arrested-left-girl-park-parents/index.html https://edition.cnn.com/2014/07/21/living/mom-arrested-left-... At least there is a debate here. I was left alone to play unsupervised at ages around four or five to no ill effect. What exactly do they believe could happen? Assume I somehow be hurt: I would cry; bystanders would be drawn near over the noise; they would ask me what was wrong; and I would receive medical attention if need be, and even if I would be driven to a hospital, I would easily be able to tell them my name and address and thus my parent would easily be contacted as to what had transpired — this all in the most unlikely event that I would hurt myself from playing on a playground designed for children.
