In today's world it's unsafe to let your kids wander around a store without a parent. I don't know how long it would take a kidnapper to steal a child, but I imagine it wouldn't be very long. My kids are 7, 4, and 1 and they always stay with either me or my husband in the store. If they want to go to the toy aisle or the arcade at the front of the store, one of us takes them. I read somewhere that a child's motor skills are not developed enough to even cross a street alone until they are 12, so why would I let them roam around a store until then?
maryjanemama Reviewed by maryjanemama on . kids in stores ok seeing as how everyone seems to want to debate i have a senerio that i have seen time amd time again and i want to know what you guys and gals think.. For my work i travel from store to store and it never fails that I will see a 6-8 (sometimes the kids even look younger) year old child walking around with no adult. usually the kid is in the toy department and the parent is off elsewhere. The other day i was at a walmart and this little girl was in the toy department alone for 15 minutes Rating: 5
