When is it OK for your child to ... ?

Let’s face it, there are very few clear answers in parenting. Prior to conceiving, many might assume that along with parenthood comes a weapons-grade injection of wisdom and maturity that prepares newly-minted moms and dads for the trying dilemmas ahead, but it doesn’t really work that way. Certain parenting quandaries inspire a host of different opinions, and there are no universal solutions.

Matt Lauer sat down today with a panel of experts to discuss a series of polls that pose familiar parenting questions like “When is it OK for kids to swim alone?” and “When is it OK for kids to use social media?” The discrepancy in the poll results was striking.
