Hats off to Kristen and Dax! Just looked up, and their girls’ ages are 11 and 9. I was a child of the 70s and 80s, and my parents used to drop me and my friends off at Carowinds for the entire day starting around age 8. I totally understand wanting to protect your children, but when it’s a safe environment such as an amusement park with security all over and your child understands all the do’s and don’ts, this makes me understand why many grown children have issues of not wanting to move out, independence, etc. They’ve been raised by helicopter parents that have never allowed their children to learn independence and prove that they are trustworthy. I know many will argue my points with their opinions, but seriously? We didn’t turn out so bad, and I surely didn’t want to live with my parents after I graduated school, I wanted to live my life! If they felt it was safe enough for their tweens to do this, then leave them be! I think they are setting a great example for future generations of parents. We all love our children, and don’t want anything bad to happen to them. But we have to allow our children to live and learn independence, too.
