>Did you mean to write that? It is normal for a 12 year old to go into town and shop alone there? When I was 12 (back in 1972) the world was much different. Even then we went only in groups and I lived in a very small town of 8,000. Most kids in the town worked on farms so it was somewhat normal to see them out and about alone, but not in town or in stores.

Over here it is pretty normal as well - and I remember going into restaurants or shops at about that age - second class of high school in our system.
