Glory Days

Most of us, whether we have children or not, can understand the type of protection that is felt when dealing with children. It is not unusual to want to shield and protect your child (or pet, or loved one) from any type of bruising or scarring- - emotional, physical or psychological. I was talking with friends this morning and one of the topics that came up was "Things you'll never let your children do even though you might have done them when you were young". Some of the list that came up was,

• riding a bike without a helmet
• walking to the local gas station/grocery store alone
• go to a friends house when no parents are home (age appropriate)

How do you guys feel about this? Is there anything crazy you can remember doing as a kid that you hope your child never hears of?!?
