[quote=Anonymous]Lots of MS kids walking and biking around our neighborhood. Starting walking to friends’ houses without an adult around 4th grade. I’ve taught my middle schooler to take their driving test bus to the mall. Sometimes a parent will drive them all rather than agree to the bus plan, and a couple other parents were nervous the first time, but it’s been fine. I took their driving test public bus starting in 7th grade. My HS kid takes bus and metro. They do their own laundry and make their own school lunches. The state laws make some decisions for you for driving restrictions. And while cars have gotten safer for those inside them, they’ve gotten more dangerous for those outside them - pedestrians, bicyclists, etc. I make a huge deal about crossing at lights/crosswalks and not jaywalking though I certainly did it in HS myself.
