I also, like many of the YTers, use my best judgement.

Usually, if the child seems mild mannered (and clean, I usually take a quick look at their hands, God knows whats on them) I will tell them that its okay to pet her, and I will hold her tight so they cant pull on her or anything. I always say "let her sniff your hand first so she can get to know you", and if Roxy seems alright, I let them pet her a bit, all the while holding her and her leash.

So, for me it depends on Roxy's response and the child and the parents. I know Roxy has an excellent temperment... at least with people... lol, not necessarily Lexi at all times...
