Neighbours

I am trying this AGAIN - I have tried to post and it worked - but it is not showing up on Bloglines and I don't know what has changed or what I may be doing wrong or different - So here AGAIN is my post!!!

We have some new people in the neighbourhood. They moved in on Friday night. I have yet to meet them but I have seen them around.

There is a mother, father and daughter. I would guess the daughter is about 6 years old.

On Saturday morning, mom and dad were in the house (I assume) and the doors and windows were shut up tight and daughter was riding around the neighbourhood on a tricycle.

Now I am not a parent yet, however, I don't think after spending ONE night in a neighbourhood that I would let my child outside, on their own to ride around without any adult supervision. The parents don't know the neighbours, the child doesn't know anyone...I just found it disturbing.

Am I wrong???

Was she riding her bike down the street or sidewalk or just in the driveway? 6 is pretty young for a new neighborhood. I wouldn't let my 6 year old do this w/o being outside and if I just moved into a new place.
