[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Assuming you let your 1st to 3rd grader walk to a friend's house in the neighborhood, a) how far can they walk without an adult, b) do they only walk without an adult in certain situations (eg, to/from school, only if a sibling/friend walks along, and c) what kind of area do you live in (eg, exburb, suburb, town/neighborhood within the beltway, DC, etc).[/quote] a. If they're doing the traditional "go wander our street and see who can play" type deal or just hanging out in our yard, they must stay on our (quiet, non-cut through) street. If it's an arranged thing, where the other parent knows they're coming and can text me as a heads up once they've arrived/are heading home, they can go a few streets over as long as they stay within our neighborhood itself. b. They walk to and from school without an adult (5 min walk, no busy streets) but always together or with a friend. c. Residential area of Bethesda[/quote]
