[quote=Anonymous]In middle school/high school I was able to walk home from school. In HS I got involved in clubs and other activities. It all gave me a sense of responsibility because I was really coordinating and handling all of this myself - my parents signed the permission forms when/if needed but that was pretty much the extent of their roll...with regard to extra curriculars. Academic grades they were very much aware of...and they helped to set up tutoring a couple of times (which I also got myself to). At any rate, in my own situation I was o.k. not having a parent at home but I can see how that might be nice, too. Depends on the kid I guess. [/quote]
