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.)

I've seen that! I like the crossing guards, even as a driver, as their mere presence seems to make drivers less crazy.

Perhaps they should have them all day long, all over the city, as a traffic calming measure. :)

i agree, anything that humanizes the use of the road is a fine thing.
