I disagree completely with the state's response. That's some stranger danger bullshit right there. This merited an investigation which should have resulted in no finding of neglect. Instead, the state has chosen to spend its finite resources to traumatize a family which did nothing wrong. At a time where we have such a high rate of childhood obesity, we should be happy when a child doesn't mind playing outside for several hours at a time.
I like how the article illustrated how irrational the state's response with this activity was as compared to having your children ride with you in the car.
