[quote=Anonymous]Exactly. We lived on the hill for years and adapted our lives to avoiding all the safety risks to the point that it seemed normal. A couple of years away, after a move, we are shaking our heads that we ever put up with that BS as “normal”. It is just dumb. There are plenty of places to live where on a dcps day off - like tomorrow- you can let your kids roam free in the neighborhood with nothing more than instructions to be home for dinner. And the neighborhood has all the same amenities within walking distance- parks, ice cream shops, bagels, etc. Plus yea- Charles Allen thinks the schools are fine and buys into the trope that if a kid comes from a nice family they will be fine. Perhaps, but some of us hope for more than fine, which apparently is a racist thing to say. So you will get nowhere with you our rep on council or f you actually want safety or schools where kids are challenged academically. [/quote]
