Hm, this must be why young urban males are so well-adjusted. All the unsupervised "free time" they get, starting at the age of 6 or so.

ETA: My non-smartass answer is that it depends on the speed limit of the surrounding streets. I would not trust a 6 or 8 year old if we're within a block or two of 35 or 40 mph speed limits. Cars are by far the greatest danger they face.

Good point but by the time they're 6, a lot of the raising of them has already happened. It's not like urban males go out into the neighborhood as blank slates at 5 or 6.
