Great video--great topic. I have an 8 year-old and this comes up a lot. I try to create as many opportunities for him to have independence around our 'hood as possible as I can see what an incredibly positive impact this has on his confidence, self-esteem and growth as a young boy. Yes, it can be scary, but it's worth it. I see him being a world traveler when he's a teenager, young adult, so we're all for helping him hone his problem-solving skills now when it comes to navigating new adventures and experiences! PS I highly recommend (as does Lenore) "Courageous Parents, Confident Kids: Letting Go So You Both Can Grow" as a resource guide/thoughtful title which encourages and teaches parents to trust their inner guidance and teach kids to do theh same.
