Park Slope’s a truly beautiful Brooklyn nabe. It’s def. a place for families over singles, and while I like visiting this area for its boutiques, restaurants, and cute little food shops, I don’t think I’d choose to raise kids here. Is it possible this nabe is too family friendly? Many years’ experience babysitting have opened my eyes to the world of park slope parenting, and I feel it’s a bit too involved. This is a place where other parents are intently observing how you choose to handle your child on the street. If you do something particularly scandalous (ex: give child non-organic fruit), you may end up in a blog post. There’s def. a big parental support system here, but I think there’s such a thing as too much support.
