<p>Musictoad –
I agree that we all need to cultivate in our children a sense of self-awareness and street smarts, but your emphasis on everpresent danger seems a little much. I grew up in a city. Do you live in an urban area? I think your use of the word “warzone” and your advice that students learn to “run very fast” are overdone.
Did I misread something here?</p>
