“When I ask people about their best childhood memories, it’s often about when something went wrong. When you’re thrown off your game and you handle it, it’s the wind beneath your wings forevermore.” — @FreeRangeKidshttps://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/05/your-money/when-it-costs-double-to-let-your-12-year-old-fly-alone.html?_r=0 …
IMO, extreme risk aversion (probably prompted by very salient edge cases) has swung the Overton window right off its hinges when it comes to thinking about the sort of challenges and risks that are acceptable for children at different developmental stages.
Re: a 12-year-old flying unsupervised (from security to the gate/plane & back): what's the fear? That she'll actually be hurt? That she'll make poor decisions, e.g. buying candy for lunch or not doing homework? That she'll get scared/overwhelmed?
It's *really* important that we nail these goal posts down, because as long as we're using "kids can't be put in danger" to defend *actually* sheltering them from any discomfort or bad decision-making, we can't have a real conversation about whether that might be hobbling them.
Seems likely. Lots of interesting facets to this. I wonder how a relatively expensive private healthcare market factors in. The framework wrt liability is bizarre; I can't think of many indoor spaces safer than airports!
When school districts have this kind of policy for middle school students (11-14 years old) it becomes a problem for anyone else to trust that kids in that age group are capable of doing anything without holding an adult's hand.pic.twitter.com/zZt5OMKBGX
What board is that?
