A Little Freedom Allowed
I just let my boys walk over to the little grocery store in town by themselves to get a pack of gum. It felt wierd, but this is the place to let them have a little freedom. I was riding over there all the time to get stuff at their age. Things just seem different now!! They're back and they're still alive. I can now relax!

Wow...what a huge milestone to hit! It seems so far away to me yet. Good for you for being strong enough!
The town I lived in when I was their age had a hardware store with penny candy for sale. We had to walk through neighbors' yards, down the street a short way, across the schoolyardand playground, and down another street some more to get there. I felt like such a big kid when I got to walk there with my brother or friends!
oh man..I still haven't brought myself to do that with my 13 and 12 year old.
wow! good for you. i would have been hiding in the bushes following them to make sure everything was ok. but that just paranoid me.
You hear and see so much on the news anymore that you'd have to be crazy not to worry about them.
I don't know how old they are, but it sounds like they're old enough..you're the best judge.
