What is safety? What is Resilience?

When I think back to what I would get up to in my childhood versus a childhood in the city today there are noticeable differences.

Have we gone too far? Are we giving our children a chance to develop the skills needed to navigate the world? Are they learning how to assess risk when we are doing it for them?
