My mother would have been imprisoned for life. She let me walk to school, the stores, friends, etc at 6 years old.

My parents would have gone to jail to. I had a long wak to school, my friends house & they also spanked me & grounded me when I deserved it. Oh no I guess my kids could have put me in jail too!!

In 4th grade I walked 1.5 miles to school and then back home. Dad dropped me off in the mornings for 7th and 8th grades, but if my quarter for bus fare was spent on wine, women or song, I walked 3 miles home. I think that all the walking, along with the detours, is how I got my je ne sais quoi.

Thanks for the link. Overbearing public servants. I grew up on a dairy farm, my parents would have been put against a wall today, LOL! In Texas of all places. Of course in Waco anything can happen. Thank God they knocked first.

Many moons ago,when I was 8 years old I’d be across the street, back and forth to my cousins house. We would walk in the woods alone to pick bunches of daffodils around the unoccupied log cabin. We’d be in the woods for hours picking and playing in the pond and streams.
The only reason I believe that mother shouldn’t have let her child walk home is because she must have known that it was a high crime area and dangerous. If it wasn’t in that sort of neighborhood all should have been good, I think.
