But I don't think people are as worried about the destination as they are about the journey.  Are there any major roads or busy intersections nearby?[/quote]

Do you think that a six-year-old and a ten-year-old are inherently incapable of crossing a major road by themselves, or do you think it depends on the specific six-year-old and ten-year-old and the specific major road?[/quote]

Studies suggest this is not until about 8 years old to be reliable.

Which studies? [/quote]

If you google Blair High School walk project, their brilliant students did a "walk safe" campaign that showed that crossing the street at a young age is dangerous and leads to fatalities and injury. [/quote]

Crossing the street at any age is dangerous and leads to fatalities and injuries. We could reduce the number of pedestrian fatalities to zero if only people didn't insist on walking places, instead of driving in a car as nature intended.

Are there any studies that show that no 6-year-old is capable of crossing the street safely?[/quote]
