Do they let second graders walk over a mile alone to and from school nowadays?

I just Googled my walk to school in first and second grade. 1.1 miles through suburban subdivisions. (I don't remember walking to or from kindergarten.)

Texas law won't let you leave a kid younger than 8 in a home alone.

Yeah, my parents would have violated that law for nearly two years. Well, assuming they got away with it for that long.

My parents didn't, but often my twin and I and my older brother were alone together....(he is 3 years older).
