Snapshot of the Homeland generation today

This is also an emerging trend, perhaps newer than Xer parents might endorse.  I was totally feral as a child, but also knew that I could go to any door and ask for help in a pinch.  In fact, I did just that when I fell through the ice into a creek in mid-winter.  I wonder whether that may return.  Stay-at-home parents are not uncommon these days, because work-at-home makes it easy (for some at least).  The real question: will the parents loosen their grips and trust their kids to be responsible?
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
