Eh, not for me. This article definitely doesn't make me want to give my child more freedom in ANY way.

While some of it I don't agree with to some degree it's true. Children nowadays are never allowed to really explore make decisions and even fail

I thought the injury stats were interesting.

I've been reading a lot about hyper parenting, helicopter parenting, child-centered parenting, coddling etc.
