[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oof, if I were a local business owner I’d be campaigning to keep the program. On Fridays when it doesn’t happen the local shopping centers are mobbed with middle schoolers behaving poorly, to the point cops have been called many times. 12-14 year olds cannot get out at 2:15 and be on their own for 3-5 hours. They will find trouble. If they’re pushing middle schoolers to be the late start/end schools, I’m okay with it.[/quote] Why are today’s 12-15yo kids less capable of being allowed to get out at 2:30 than GenX at the same age? And don’t even start with the nonsense that moms were home. We were the latchkey kids. [/quote] Gen X latchkey here. It was a terrible experience which I wouldn’t recommend for any MS child. [/quote]
