Yeah, I've got some friends that age. I certainly wouldn't put them in the category of doing smart things. I was a super independent kid just by nature and was raised to take care of myself. I don't think that's all that common anymore. It's probably the helicopter parent syndrome still stuck around, they are worse off because no one ever took the floaties off and let them sink and now they still can't swim at all.
