A 41-year-old mother was handcuffed, put in the back of a cruiser, and taken to jail for letting her 10-year-old son walk a mile from home.
Last month, Brittany Patterson, a mother of four, was arrested. Her crime? For a short period of time, she did not know where her 10-year-old son was, and he walked less than a mile from home. According to local police, “anything could have happened.” Patterson’s lawyer and many parents and commentators have come to her defense as a mother who gave her son age-appropriate independence and did not neglect or endanger him.
Lenore Skenazy broke the story at Reason, and Patterson’s case sparked another national conversation about “free-range parenting.” Free-range parents are not just up against other helicopter parents and anxious Karens, but now must also take on an overreaching government and a bully police state.
The Facts of the Case
According to Skenazy, the incident occurred on Oct. 30, 2024. When Patterson needed to take her eldest son to a medical appointment, she could not find her 10-year-old son, Soren, and his phone was not working when she called. The family lives on 16 acres outside Mineral Bluff, Georgia, a town of 370. The boy’s grandfather lives on the property and his grandmother and other relatives are nearby. Patterson assumed he was with family or playing in the woods, which he does often, and left.
Later, Patterson received a phone call from the sheriff. It turned out Soren was not on the family’s property as she assumed. Without telling his grandfather, the boy decided to walk the mile into town to the Dollar General. A woman saw Soren walking alone, became concerned, and asked him if he was okay. He responded that he was, but she called the police anyway. […]

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
