[quote=Anonymous]Some thoughts here. FWIW, my kids walked to elementary school with only a couple of neighborhood streets to cross. The busiest intersection (in our neighborhood) had an adult crossing guard. There were lots of walkers and, sometimes, I walked part way. But, not always. Had there been few walkers, I would have walked every day. Since we don't know your neighborhood, this puts an uncertainty in support. Are there other kids at this bus stop walking your way? Or just your child? My suggestion: meet the bus this week--but, stand across the street if he must cross it. See how that goes. Then, back off a little. However, if he is out there totally alone, I'm not sure how much I would back off. But, again, I don't know your neighborhood.[/quote]
