Critical Praise for Free-Range Kids"Skenazy will find plenty of supporters for her contention that, in a world where the rights of chickens to roam freely are championed, it's time to liberate the kids."?The Wall Street Journal "A bubbly but potent corrective for the irrational fears that drive so many parents crazy."?Robert Needlman, M.D., coauthor, Dr. Spock's Baby and Child Care, 8th Edition "Lenore Skenazy is a national hero."?Mary Roach, author, Bonk and Stiff Readers Rave Too "I read the whole thing and feel so much better! The pressure of always trying to do the exact right thing for my kids was exhausting. In truth, I have two normal, high-energy boys who need to be able to explore the world. Thank you!" "Your book had me laughing so hard that my husband had to come and see if I was okay! (I think my gasping sounded like sobbing.)""Just what the doctor ordered. I'm a single mother of two girls, 7 and 10, in a middle-class suburb that is very safe. I needed the advice in your book and had a lot of belly laughs reading it.""I didn't even realize the path I was going down until I stumbled across your book. Letting go feels great, and I can really see a difference in my son. He plays outside all the time with his group, and he loves being able to run to all of his friends' houses, alone, to see if they can play. It's a proud moment for both of us.""I was finding myself getting paranoid. I am so happy I read your book! It has really helped me relax." "Now if I can just get my wife to read it."
