Oh, I very much agree with you. But I would wonder just how many kids (pre-teens, adolescents) are wandering around these parks without their parents or an adult chaperone in the immediate vicinity.

You have a point, but it's not a good idea to let younger kids just roam around with older siblings or friends. It puts a responsibility on the older ones that they are not mature enough to handle in an emergency.

Of course your talking to a woman that ruined the families summer vacation in Florida by standing on the beach with a pair of binoculars looking for sharks while the kids swam, hahaha.

I did a number of times, in my younger days (probably about 12 or so).
