[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I walked to kindergarten in 1975 with my 7 year old brother. Since kindergarten got out earlier than 2nd grade I walked home 5 blocks by myself. This was in a safe suburb of LosAngeles. I am afraid to send my six year old off to ride his bike around the block because of some crazy neighbor calling CPS.[/quote] Exactly me. I'm from LA, was in K in 1975. And yes, I walked to school by myself starting in 2nd grade, crossing a busy road with traffic signals. I let my kids (7 and 10) run around outside our neighborhood, often times out of my sight. Sometimes I think someone will call CPS on me even though we live in a very safe neighborhood. Some people on this forum alone have stated they'd call CPS for the slightest of perceived neglect. What crap.[/quote]
