KDN was honored and humbled when is was recently included on DiscoveryHealth.com as a "learn more" link!  It is exciting to be featured on such a well-known and widely recognized website.  However, I was flabbergasted when I saw it was an article on the Top 10 Radical Parenting Methods!  Is connecting kids with nature so far out of the realm of how kids spend their time these days that it's considered radical?  I continued to read the story and found out I was included with the likes of Lenore Skenazy, founder of the Free-range Kids Movement.  If you don't know her name, she is the New York City mom who allowed her child to take the subway to school by himself and received boatloads of flack from the media and the public for it.  I personally think she has a point --- to a point.  Her website says "we just do NOT believe that every time school age kids go outside, they need a security detail."  Agreed!  That is an entirely different issue that I will address one of these days.  Anyway, I digress.  If you have a moment, cruise on over to Discovery Health and read the entire article.  There are some radical ideas out there!  Please let me know what you think in the comments section.
