[quote=Anonymous]i had a girlfriend who lived inJapan with her family for a year recently and she said all the kids, even kindergarteners, go to school by themselves in Tokyo. They hop on the subway and get off at the right stop or walk in their neighborhoods. everyone sees it as their responsbility to watch out for the kids and be sure they are safe, but the kids pretty much can manage for themselves. It is a very different society but a very safe one, at least in this way. [/quote]
