> My parents were right. I am right. This majority of people who want me to chop my kids off at the knees are wrong. I’m glad they were the right parents for you. I’m a parent too, and I wouldn’t be ready to call a parent right or wrong based on being on either side of those situations. Every child is different. There are certainly some that thrive with more freedom and others that need more structure and direct participation. Also, every time and region is different. I’d hope people parent differently in high crime areas vs. low crime areas. And pedestrian friendly / public transportation friendly areas vs. not. I agree that “dangerous” is a subjective metric, and that’s why morally good parenting feels to me more like a spectrum than an absolute.
