Imo anyone under secondary age should not be left responsible.
Finland is safer, finish friend tells me natsku, do you,think so? She said growing up she used to walk home at 11 and cook dinner, it was the norm, but here its not and she wouldn't allow her children to
I agree with midnight fairy, I don't think any child under 11 should be out alone where parents don't have an eye on them.. Someone here said they sometimes have to ask another mother in the street what house their kids are in... Sorry but to me that's insane I just couldn't not know for 1 min where my child was. This worlds just too scary
Nats, it sounds different to hear in that if people are working later than the school children then there wont be crazy ass commuters speeding along the roads trying to get some where like it is an emergency. I mean I take it there would be some cars about but not to the degree it is here.
My brother lives some where called Bagshot, it has a real village feel to it. The school is two or three roads away and all very quiet. I would probably let my older two go to school on their own at ten there but to me it just isn't safe for them where we are. The last school year I can think of at least three deaths of children between here and the school and about twenty more accidents involving pedestrians, including two where the lollipop lady has been hit
