The main issue with freeing the kids, is that kids cannot vote. This is not un-doable. With slaves, slaves could not vote. But there were enough non-slaves that agreed that slaves should be freed. So it passed through. With women rights until some point in time women couldn't vote too. But there were e...

It is estimated that by 2030 the child-surveillance industry will grow to $500 billion. An industry that capitalizes on bogus fears and causes anxiety in parents and children ( for different reasons ). And an industry that is both directly and indirectly causing the privacy nightmare that we are experiencing. On many levels...

As a teenager with a car and no cell phone, I was sometimes hundreds of miles from where my parents thought I was. Now I have teenagers and can't imagine them driving. Not going to be a four car family though. What do you use to keep your skirts from blowing up #BikeTooter? #freeRangeKids

Paris now has 180 gorgeous ‘#schoolStreets.’ They are pedestrianized and landscaped streets around schools - to mitigate crashes, prioritize walking to school, reduce noise and air pollution. No brainer, really.
Sign this letter to let #Portland leaders know you support the Safer #SchoolStreets Pilot to not only enhance the safety, physical health, and academic performance of our children, but also contribute to the overall sustainability and livability of our city by reducing traffic, carbon emissions, and promoting #community connections. #ClimateAction #pdxBikes #BikeBus #FreeRangeKids #SafeRoutesToSchool
What do we do with the #freeRangeKids who aren't technically ready to be left unattended? They want to play with friends for an hour or so after school and I don't really need to be here for that but they don't want to walk home on their own.
#independenceDay thought about #FreeRangeKids: Can we just put one of those chalk markers on every kid's #bike and give them an unlimited supply of chalk? Then your #transportation dept can follow them around with cones, and viola you have a complete and connected #bikewayNetwork. To get out of the #carSupremacy rut, start with at least one car-free day per month and give the kids bikes + lessons if they need them.
#SchoolStreets protect kids from cars and pollution, and create space for #BikeToSchool #FreeRangeKids, #depaving and greening streets. All you need to do is push car traffic a block or two away from the front door for at least a couple hours of the day.

@modacitylife@mastodon.world about the #feministCity, #FreeRangeKids and #15minuteNeighborhood as a working mom, spending so much time and stress on getting kids around in a deficient #transportation network vs #Delft and being free from time wasted in traffic. @TheWarOnCars (at 20m) https://thewaroncars.org/2021/12/27/curbing-traffic-with-melissa-and-chris-bruntlett/

For an article, have you ever tried to give your kids more independence (let them walk to school/run an errand/play at a park alone) & gotten pushback of some sort? Or, alternatively, does the fear of such pushback hold you back? I'd love to chat: stephaniehelenemurray at gmail.com
@SwiftySanders under-emphasized mention of #SchoolStreets and the amazing impact of barring cars from even just a small part of one block, even just for the 30 minutes before and after school. We really have no excuse for not having some bit of car-free blockface at every single elementary school. #BanCars #TacticalUrbanism #SafeRoutesToSchool #BikeBus #WalkingSchoolBus #ClimateAction #FreeRangeKids
