[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in the Midwest - affluent neighborhood full of huge families. Never did I see a parent at the bus stop - I walked about 3/4 of a mile at 5 to K, past the scary barking dogs, an old guy flasher (happened just once my friend and I when we were a block from school) etc. When I later switched to a public jr high and then a private HS there was never a parent, ever at the bus stop - there were elementary kids getting off the private school bus as well. We all found our ways home just fine - even in the midst of the occasional flasher. Thankfully, our current neighborhood in No. VA has a mix of anxious parents and "let 'em walk" types so everyone is well looked after.[/quote]
