I think the fact that you're pointing out that she is too far to the other extreme, just points out how far paranoic parenting has been socially accepted. I think her stance is very correct, and also I am very grateful that I was able to grow up in a third-world country, which allowed me great freedom. I would never want to raise a child in a place where parents do not let their kids walk to school for example.

This guy is not a guy.

So she isn't. I think of Quinn as a male name and did not read her "about" page.
