We never let ours out of sight at that age and things were far safer than now 30 years ago

Considering people of colour sometimes had to go out in groups to lessen the likelihood of getting killed/jumped by racist yobs and crime was generally as high as ever I wouldn’t exactly say that. You just hear more about crimes now (thanks to the Internet).

But none of that detracts from the tragedy of this case anyhow. Parents can’t supervise kids over a certain age 100% of the time, especially when they’ve sort of demonstrated they can be trusted to go off for a bit at least some of the time. I don’t know many parents who accompany their 11-year-olds to play.

What about the 6yrs old and 8 years old ?

Under normal circumstances you’d trust someone on the brink of being in high-school to look out for all of them but age isn’t the thing to make an issue here. It’s very sad all-’round so for a second it doesn’t matter how-old they were.
