Free Range Kids by Lenore Skenazy
Giving Our Children the Freedom We Had Without Going Nuts with Worry
A spirited defense of allowing children more independence, arguing that overprotective parenting and fear-driven policies deprive kids of essential opportunities to learn risk management, resilience, and confidence. Combining research, anecdotes, practical tips, and attention to legal and cultural barriers, it shows how age-appropriate freedom—such as walking to school, playing outside unsupervised, and making small mistakes—helps children grow into capable, self-reliant individuals and rebuilds trust within communities.
