if u let ur teenagers go to the mall because u trust them?

Question

then why dont u allow ur little ones to go to the mall with other little ones. u taught them about what can happen and how to deal with strangers and all that stuff so why dont u allow ur kids that are younger to go with other young kids without an adult? they r fun think about this if someone trys 2 beat them up there r people there. nothing will happen because there r people there watching and when they hear the little kids scream they will come and help them so why dont u parents drop them off at the mall when nothing will happen. u trust them and u trust ur teens u should let little kids have freedom to as long as u trust them and when a certain situation comes up they kno what to do

Answer 2

Children all over the world have been abducted from malls when their parents are standing just a few feet away. Younger children should never be "dropped off" at a mall alone, and the idea that they are "safe" because if someone tried to hurt them there are people around to run to their aide, is ludicrous. When I hear a screaming, or crying child in a public place, my first thought is that the child is simply having a "temper tantrum" not that he or she is being abducted. People go about their business...look around you the next time you see a kid throwing a fit. Do you see anyone running to their aide? Not likely. I can only surmise by your question that (A) you are either a young kid that is trying to convince your parents that you are perfectly safe hanging out at the mall, or (B) you are a parent that is trying to justify your irresponsibal actions, because you have already dropped your young kids off at a mall. I'm betting that you fill the spot of "A".

Answer 3

First of all there are preditors waiting around in mall and playgrounds waiting for a person with your attitude to slip up and just let your children run around and do as they please. For one a Little child cannot defend themselves from a preditor and not all little kids know exactly what to do when situations come up they are still learning how to cope. In the situation of a teenager you are old enough to know better than to just go off with anyone a teenager stands a better chance of 1 survival in a situation where some one is trying to take them than a little child! Yes, There are SOME people who will interfere if they hear a child screaming and then there are those who will not. What if the child is threatend and is scared to scream or say something to someone? then what your child is kidnapped and everyone is pointing their finger at you because you should have been there to protect your child. It's not only the safety of your child that you worry about now days you have to worry about their safety hell in the public bathrooms,and everywhere now then you have those who are ready to point the finger. your protecting your child and basically yourself because you can get arrested for stupid things like that now days. reckless endangerment! why were you not supervising your child? why did you leave a little child at the mall with other little children? these are some of the questions that you will be asked. when you carry a child for 9 months the last thing you want to hear is your child is missing or dead because of a dumb mistake of giving your child a child younger than 12 years old permission to rome through the mall on their own. Then you will feel that it is your fault that you let your child go out and something happened to them. you will feel guilty.

Answer 4

little kids dont really need to be in the mall anyway. If they are buying stuff they should be with someone to help them. Besides they just might not understand. Little kids and teens arent the same thing

Answer 5

your an idiot who needs to go back to school. you are obviously not a parent and someone who doesnt need to be one anytime soon. children under 15 should never be in a mall unattended. this day and time even grown women shouldnt be alone. the mall is becoming a very dangerous place. to the little kids point. why should a 5-10 year old be anywhere alone. its against the law its called child endangerment and neglect. you are a bored little girl who shouldnt be on her parents computer

Answer 6

I hope you're kidding! This is not an issue of trust or responsiblity, this is an issue of maturity. Young children, no matter how many times you warn them of dangers, and no matter how much you have taught them, are not prepared to handle the world on their own. Theya re considered dependants because they are just that, Dependant! They need the the protection and supervision of adults because they are not prepared (nor should they ever be expected) to handle adult situations alone. They are not adults. They may know what they should do, but they should not be expected to be able to defend and protect themselves. That is ignorant and irrational thinking.

Answer 7

It's equally difficult to be parents and sons!
There's no school teaching people to become a good parent.
Being permissive is too bad as like as being too preclusive.
Some parents are good and talkative while others are peevish and wicked. That's the reason why in the world there are a lot of mistreated children with all the problems coming from.
The juvenile malaise just is one, with violence, drug, masturbation addiction, escape, etc.

Answer 8

I would NEVER allow my young child to go to the mall. Thinking back (not long ago), but I am so HAPPY that my parents loved me enough to not let me go to the mall alone with friends as a young child. You should thank God that you have parents that give a darn to what happens to you. Not everyone does!

Answer 9

Sometimes children can do unexpected things. They haven't physically gotten their reasoning skills. They may do something to be funny, they may do something on accident, they may do just fine. Imagine worst case scenario.. he or she falls.. off the stairs. Or goof off and get hurt. The other children may be too scared to tell what happened. I understand that could happen with teens, Its just they have better mentality to reason. My cousins are 10. Both girls. I've walked in on some really interesting conversations ... ones that i didn't have til i was 15. They know all the safety stuff.. and to stay paired up, not to go anywhere alone... But if i give them too much leeway they take advantage. Honestly its different with your own kids. Post to tell us how it goes.

Answer 10

Little kids. Are you serious? First off I wouldn't let 6 or 7 year old go anywhere outside of school by themselves. That's stupid. Nobody is going to watch them at a mall. A pedophile could walk off with them. I think your argument is dumb. You need to think things through.

Answer 11

And that is what is wrong with the world. parents drop off their kids somewhere, no supervision, let the strangers look after them. YOU obviously have not thought this one through, possibly you were dropped off at the mall too often.
