MY DD has just started secondary school and wants to go out around the village with her friends after school and weekends. She takes her phone with her, but last week came back and said she and a friend (also 11) had been in the woods about half mile away playing hide and seek and had seen a tramp in there and had run away. I don't mind village/park but lonely woodland? She is sensible, I know she needs freedom, but I am freaking out until I hear her come in the front door. I have set some rules about where she can go, and got a tracker app for her phone.
What limits has anyone set their DD's - and when do they get freedom to go to town alone, take a bus, walk to friends house across busy road etc. I know this is just the start of it and in a few years she'll be out all night! Gulp...
