[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our stop has 30 kids, most of them second grade or younger, so yeah, there's a lot of parents. Several of us do work from home and we do chat in the morning. Life is busy, this is time we know we'll be able to chat. It's nice. [b]Once my kid hits 4th grade or so I think she'll walk on her own. It's only about 8 townhouses away, and we can see the stop from our house. She does walk home by herself after school (with a small group who come home on the bus and walk this way)[/b].[/quote] An average child without issues should be able to do this in first grade. 8 townhouses and you can see the stop from your house, and she might be able to do it when she's 10?!? Jesus.[/quote] I think it is like Munchausenq disorder. Parents need their kids to be dependent on them for a feeling of better mothering. Instead of parenting and teaching them to be productive confident people in society. It is debilitating. [/quote]
