Children Aren't Reckless When Parents Aren't Aroun
A recent study follow 10 - 12 year olds and found that, while they expose themselves to risk as many parents may fear, children take a very active role in managing their exposure to risk in regards to their own actions and by setting rules and limitations in regards to activities with other children.
The University of Warwick and the Research Unit for General Practice in Copenhagen conducted a study that observed children for 8 months in their school, after-school, and in their neighborhood when in the absence of parents.
According to University of Warwick Professor Pia Christensen, “Many parents would be amazed if they realized just how often their children take risks and just how good they are at managing that risk. This risk taking helps them gain a clear understanding of the strengths and limits of their bodies and prepares them for interaction with the real world beyond the often over protected home.”
