According to statistics, crime rates are down. But will you allow your kids to roam free around town?

Safe

There’s controversy over the subject of free-range parenting. Many folks frown on parents allowing their kids to stray to far from home to play as we all did just a few decades ago.

Redefining Safety

But there’s confusion here because these same folks claim that before the violent chaos of 2020 exploded, things were safer than ever. Really?

As parents, ask how safety is being defined. How are statistics being gathered these days? Of course, crime rates will go down when convictions go down. Convictions do go down when criminals aren’t prosecuted anymore.

I want my kids outside! But I still have to be aware of the neighborhood I live in because our free-range kids could end up in bondage.
