Did you know Utah has special laws that protect free range parenting?
Senate Bill (SB) 0065 -- defines child neglect in a way that protects parents who allow their children to engage in independent activities:
- Walking, running, or bicycling to and from school
- Traveling to and from nearby commercial or recreational facilities
- Engaging in outdoor play
The law was a response to the "free-range kids" movement, which was launched by Lenore Skenazy after she let her 9-year-old son ride the subway home alone.
