That must always be a consideration, but other than that, however, all children deserve the chance of what we used to think of as adventure, going with their friends for a 'long walk', (even if it's only a mile there and another mile back again, with a bag of crisps and a bottle of pop to share), that is the society we need to always aim for, one were children can enjoy the freedom we used to have, being able to walk past adults without us putting doubts in their minds, if they actually get lost knowing that the next adult they come across will point them in the right direction, or even walk part of the way to see them safely home, (I wouldn't dare do that with a lost child these days, why? Not because I'm sick but society is sick!).
