[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 556507, member: 11791"] Back in the days before technology, we had a simple way of keeping kids safe. The rule was: four-or-more, or you stay home. When I walked to school, my mom and 3 other moms from different directions watched me and my friends until we met at "the corner" (within eyesight of home, coming from different directions). Depending on the day, we were 4, 5 or 6... and we went on our merry way. Only two today? wave for a parent, we don't walk alone. This rule held EVEN IN HIGH SCHOOL - although, at that age, we could go a block or two... we'd never go to the mall, or a school sports event, or anywhere else "out" with our HS friends, unless we were "four or more".
