You're just being someone who loves and cres about her kids...<BR/><BR/>My daughter got hit by a car, years ago. It happened right in front of me. For ages afterwards, if I heard an ambulance, I'd have to go and check on her. The kids begged to be able to walk to school. I let them, but would follow discreetly behind.<BR/><BR/>It's all about letting them have their freedom and keeping them safe and not losing your mind at the same time!! :-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17109531002159599556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3765717475414946993.post-64974136472503798262008-09-09T21:50:00.000-05:002008-09-09T21:50:00.000-05:00I'm glad to know I'm not alone!!

Meanwhile when I was a kid, there were no cell phones and we basically ran around the neighborhood for hours and no one knew where we were or what we were doing. How did our parents not go crazy? Different times, I guess.CaraBeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04614627167922944626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3765717475414946993.post-55276202590647700682008-09-09T17:07:00.000-05:002008-09-09T17:07:00.000-05:00I have something for you.

I am SO with you! Mine are too little to carry cell phones, and when they are old enough, I don't know whether I'm going to get them some or not. I think not being able to reach them because they don't have a phone would be less terrifying than not being able to reach them when THEY SHOULD BE ANSWERING! <BR/><BR/>Maybe I'll make them all my pet babies. ;)Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03781180270057392862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3765717475414946993.post-56299278431099232832008-09-09T08:35:00.000-05:002008-09-09T08:35:00.000-05:00oh!
