‘Telescope Parenting’ Means Watching Your Kids from a Safe Distance

I practice telescope parenting. When my kids were younger, I loved watching them run around in public and got great amusement observing their antics. I let them pick the agenda on the outing, interact with whomever they fancied and climb or explore at will. This worked great on hikes, at the beach, visiting museums or shopping malls, where they could safely wander and express themselves. It was always interesting to see who was charmed by their personalities, who would initiate conversation and who would look around for the irresponsible guardian who set the kids loose. [Sam Glaser]

The memorandum was submitted by The Committee of Jewish Delegations, representing the Jewish populations of 22 countries, appealing to the League of Nations to obtain justice for the most terrible crimes that history had, until that time, ever witnessed,
