[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The kid wouldn't really be getting himself off to school alone & would not need to carry around a house key. His mom would be home while he got ready & to see he left for the bus stop on time. He would be driven to school by an adult (the school bus driver).He would not need a house key because his mother would still be home to let him for another 40 minutes should the bus not come. All he would be doing alone would be walking [b]half a block [/b]& waiting a few minutes for the bus [b]on his own block[/b]. I'm 36 & honestly know not a single person my age who wouldn't have been allowed to do that as a 6-year-old.[/quote] I agree with this. Its not like the kid is going to be alone at the bus stop either. He'll likely be with a group of kids and probably some parents too. I'd say let him do it but try to find an older kid to buddy with or mom can stand outside and watch from a distance while the younger kid sleeps inside. [/quote]
