Damn, my whole country must be guilty of neglect then!

  Lol this is the USA. I've been interrogated when a stranger drove past my rather remote property, in the middle of nowhere, and saw that my child was walking about 50 feet "by herself" on her own fucking property(I was actually watching her, just from further away, so I was able to intervene before they called CPS). Welcome to America where you must watch the kid every second until they turn 18, except at the moment they turn 18 they must be booted from the house to figure everything out all at once with nothing more than a minimum wage job, a gun, and rents that reach the stratosphere.

    Free Range Kids organization has been fighting against this, and a number of states have passed laws around it.

    >Welcome to America where you must watch the kid every second until they turn 18 This must be a regional thing? I live in New England and I always see kids out and about with no adults around supervising. Especially from 1-3PM on weekdays when school lets out. Maybe a side-effect of walkable infrastructure.

    Interestingly the same America were teenagers end up with Epstein. Or were you can "homeschool" your kids.
