[quote=Anonymous]6 might be fine depending on the kid. If you are insecure why not see if he can walk with other kids from the neighborhood? I remember my Mom would walk to school with me when I was 6, then towards the end of that year she was sure I knew the way and how to behave etc. and she let me walk alone. Once I was ready to do the same thing by bike (after a school lead bike safety class) I went by bike. I would do it the exact same way. Except bus instead of bike for you. Walk with him until you know he knows what to do. Then let him go alone. Sure it takes some extre effort but letting your child take that first important step towards independence is worth it IMO.[/quote]
