Would you leave your child in your car alone while you quickly run into the store for a carton of milk? In some states, this is illegal, and some feel this is overpolicing of parents. Have laws discouraged individual preferences on parenting kids? Are these laws leading to parents overpolicing children? We discuss these issues with our panel:
- Lenore Skenazy, author of "Free Range Kids"
- Katie Malarkey, vice president of Parenting Village
- Emily Horowitz, president of Parenting Village
- Sarah Fitzgibbons, MA, LMHC, MT-BC, clinical director for the Society for the Protection and Care of Children
