It's really not.

If I wasn't unsupervised more often than not, I wouldn't know how to take care of myself. You've got to grow up sometime. Get rid of the training wheels.

The kid being the one who insists on having a babysitter? Fear.

Common sense dictates being aware of your limits. Being rash isn't the same as being brave, and being sensible isn't being cowardly.

[just1c3w1tch]

No, it isn't. Common sense is why I carry a cane. It's why I study for tests and assignments.

It doesn't mean I need a fucking guard detail. [She rolls her sightless eyes.]

[fuckilovebooks]

I hardly said you did. We're arguing the exact same thing.

[just1c3w1tch]

No, we're not. You'll never expand your limits if you don't push them. I'm advocating studying up before doing something difficult; you're advocating getting a babysitter.

I think you're underestimating how dangerous the Forbidden Forest really is.

[just1c3w1tch]

Have you ever been there by yourself? Have you talked to the kids who do go there on their own?

Maybe I am underestimating it. Maybe I'm not ready to go. That doesn't mean I'm going to argue that the same holds true for everyone who hasn't graduated.
