A new law legalizing free-range parenting will soon take effect in Utah allowing children to do things alone like travelling to school.
I'm confused.
Was this ever illegal in the first place?
I mean are there laws on the books that literally say you aren't allowed to let your kids walk to school by themselves?
How can you make something "legal" that was never illegal in the first place?

Based on what I heard on the radio the other day they wanted to make sure that parents that let their kids walk to school alone, stay home alone after school, ride their bikes etc wouldn't be charged with child endangerment.

As I mentioned in a few posts above. I think this law is more of a law that tells parents "Hey, it is okay for you to let your 10 year old go play at the park a few blocks away. It is okay for you to let your kid and his buddy walk to and from school that is a half mile away. It is okay to let your kid ride his bike around the neighborhood. It is perfectly fine to leave your 11 year old home alone while you and your wife go to the movies. And to all you moronic busy bodies that call us for stupid complaints like outlined above leave us the hell alone. "
