Can you give them freedom when you don't trust them?

[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 318531, member: 1550"] I never really thought too hard about this. My Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) son was very immature and far too trusting so he simply couldn't go, say, to the pool himself as early as other boys. When my daughter was using drugs, I never left her home alone. I knew what that meant after I tried it once. I go by the child. A shooting party, wow. I don't think L. ever needs to know how to shoot a gun and also would have kept him home...lol. He isn't violent. He's very peaceful. But he tends to misuse things (not on purpose). I think you really just have to use your common sense and not give into peer pressure. There's no hard and fast rule for when a child should be allowed to do anything in my opinion. [/QUOTE]
