Ten seems like the right age to me, but all children are different. I’d say trust your judgment, and trust your kid. It worked out for my kid (in my opinion).
My friend was over with her 14 month old, who just LOVED running around in my back yard. He was standing next to a metal yard-art thing with sharp rusty “leaves” at the same height as his blond little noggin. I touched his head and said, “Hey those are sharp.” He just smiled. I shrugged and said, “You’ll learn,” and turned my attention back to the adult conversation. His mom was laughing really hard. She said, “I was just listening to a podcast about Lazy Parenting!” I tell that story to illustrate that my perspective may not be your perspective. Also, it takes a lot of work to be a “lazy” parent and let kids take the right amount of responsibility for themselves.
