Playing with neighbors

[757dad]

Ok here's the background: my girls 6.5 and 5 have just started playing with neighbors. Seem like good kids, ages 10, 8, and 3. If my girls are playing my themselves I usually sit outside with them unless they are in the backyard.
Question is this: when your kids are playing with neighborhood kids are you outside? Not saying I am right there playing with them but sitting on the porch, reading, etc.

at those ages I was for sure

Always a good idea to have at least one eye on them at that age.

We usually had at least one adult watching the kids, myself or my neighbor.
