Summertime dinner calls long overdue

[dropcap]M[/dropcap]aybe a new Utah law will revive the lost art of parents calling their children home for dinner.

Utah recently passed the nation’s first “free-range parenting” law to protect parents from prosecution for allowing their children to play in nearby parks, walk to school, go to the store or rumble through a neighborhood creek - without adult supervision.

It’s a shame that it now takes passing laws to allow kids to enjoy childhood activities without adult supervision, but we must.
