[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok, I'll bite. I used to drop off and pick up my kid at the bust stop through 3rd grade. From grade 4 on, she's walking back and forth alone. However, there is a parent in our neighborhood who is putting his 7th grader on the bus. I kid you not, the guy hangs around the stop looking at this phone until the bus comes. The man is retired so he, obviously, doesn't have anything else to do, but I find this setup to be extremely weird. I mean, c'mon, you're putting a 13-year-old boy on the school bus? And no, the kid is not SN.[/quote]

Our really nice neighbor (WAHM dad) usually picks up his MS aged son at the bus stop. He uses it as a break and to walk the dog, and I imagine a few minutes to chat with son about his day- before the younger two (elementary aged) get home- 45min later . I don’t see an issue with this and it seems sweet to me.

We don’t have a huge number of kids in our nabe so it isn’t “ruining the bus stop culture” or anything lol. I think we have 2 middle school kids at our stop, 7 elementary kids (including my 2). other then the kindergartner neighbor kid (parents still walk him) we are all sometimes there, sometimes not.
