[quote=Anonymous]For my first kid, I waited until 7th grade. My second will be doing this for the first time in 4th grade. We live in a safe neighborhood and I've walked my kids to and from school enough over the years to be comfortable with their street safety. You might want to try a variety of things to prepare your child. I send mine on bike rides with a curfew. I have them walk to and from activities in the neighborhood when I am available to be sure they got there. I go out for groceries and, just this past weekend for a two hour lunch. And, for the first week, I have family at our house, so I'll know if there is a problem. I'm feeling really good at this point, but it has been a process to prepare.[/quote]
