[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Something I've not seen mentioned yet is that after a couple of weeks, this kid will likely have the routine down and be perfectly fine to cross the busy road by himself safely, giving OP back her flexibility. I'm sure a lot of what's going on here is the scariness/newness of him walking himself home, but once he can tell his mom he can do it on his own, he will. [/quote] It’s been mentioned, but how you e put it is very clear. And I agree. This is a new family, in a new area. New school and routine for the kid and probably mom too. I really feel Like this is an interim measure and more like “can you keep an eye on him” vs. the panic on here basically correlating this with OP somehow being tearfully begged to adopt this child. He might feel unsure now, but I’m sure that in a few weeks he will hit his own stride both in getting home, and being at home alone, and not want to walk home with the little kids and stranger mom.
