I was discussing a similar thing with some mates last night. Boys/men need some risk in life. It’s what makes us men. I can easily see my boys doing the same sort of thing, risky, exploring, might get caught; but work out the risks, plan your entry and exit points, start with a short run, and so on. Seeing the perplexion on TV that you’ve caused is a bonus!
It is very difficult to be adventurous today because technology and bureaucracy have taken away the risk, and thus the exhiliration.
