[quote=Anonymous]I used to bike to the closest gas station to get an ice cream bar in the summer. A mile or so trip, I'd estimate. Probably in fourth or fifth grade. In MS I biked several miles to the public library or my grandma's house all the time. I'd let my kid go into a store by herself to buy something while I waited outside now, and she's 8. I'll probably be okay with letting her walk to the store by herself in a couple of years. My issue is that she's not always great about looking both ways before crossing the street; when she gets better about that, I'd be fine. The closest CVS is less than a half a mile.[/quote]
