with so many crazy people out there, it is always safer to refly on family to coordinate drop off and pick up times from school

Don't have kids and my experiences are YEARS ago.

at age between 11 and 12, children could walk alone to the bus stop.

never talk to strangers

Keep them out of the broom closet

Don't hover.

I used to tell my son to never answer the door don t care if someone s knocking it hard I wanna break it down. Do not answer. Stay in your room play your games and he was also protected by a dog.

I think parents should train their children to be ready to walk or take the bus alone. The main point is not the age but the safety guidelines the children need to know and follow.

Being loving and kind to them as a great role model

Depending if it is a neighborhood school or several miles away, I would say let them walk to the first and walk to the bus stop for the second by age 8

not

My youngest child will be 55 years old in November.

Teach your children about Stranger Danger

i would not let them go alone there needs to be someone with them they need to be protected because of all the stuff thats going on

have thm WALKKKKKK. Too many parents drie kids now teaching the not to even walk down the street to school

Igus

Walk home or off the bus in groups or pairs always. If you are a stay at home parent and know of a child who walks by themselves offer to walk them home or to a safe after school location. No Child should ever walk alone.

If they can't get and from school by themselves in a timely fashion they can't hang out with their friends.

my kids are all out of school

Always communicates with them at all times

Take the time to pick your children up from school as it is much safer.

make sure your child walk to bus stop with someone everyday .

LET THEM GO AND LEARN HOW TO NAVIGATE FOR THEMSELVES

COO

Don't think that nothing bad or dangerous couldn' t happen- it does happen when least expected- school age children still need parents to guide& protect

Eat 1 meal together everyday as a family. Have an open dialogue about the day. Keep it informal. LISTEN. They'll always say something worth hearing!

nothing i cansay

Make sure that they know street safety rules!

don't let your child walk to the bus stop alone

Everything depends upon the level of maturity of the child and the safety of the place where you live!

Keep your kids off social media for a little while if possible

10 and under: wait for the bus with them; be there when they come home.

Create a code word for the child to listen for if you have some one else picking the child up. Then change it if used.

At all times, make sure you know where your children are, who they are with, what they are doing, and when they will be home (as well as how they will get home).

depends on you neighborhood, safety, distance, maturity

The stranger danger talk is the most important.

Faite confiance a votre enfant.

walk and talk with them as often as you can

Not without knowing the individual's circumstances.

Never leave your child unattended.

Always listen to what your children tell you, pay attention to who they hang out with

don't take chances!!

teach them at home

Keep your fingers crossed!

NA!

Use public transit

If they miss the bus never walk home alone

Children need to be given rules and responsibilities - life is not full of cotton wool.

Arrange for someone to pick up your child after school and to take care of them until you get home from work.

make sure the area is safe and see what the distance is to the bus stop

Get 6someone who is trustworthy

I homeschool my children so I do not have to worry about bullies, molesters, teachers and coaches who abuse their students, or other children's problems (parental problems included), or the possibility of drugs in my children's system.

Don't have any school age children.

How about some advice. Break these up! 7 questions for 5 points? Everyone will get more points if you break them up into 1 question polls. PLEASE!!

To just be very careful. Now you never know who is lurking around.

unsure

Always let them know they can come to you about anything. Support them and believe them. Like if they're being bullied at school or if some adult makes them feel uncomfortable.. If you can, take & pick up your kids to & from school yourself. If you're not able, have a trusted friend or neighbor help you out. We were lucky when our kids were in school, because we had a bunch of neighbors who became our friends and we all looked out for each other and our kids were never, ever alone when taking the bus to and from school.

Tell them to be aware of their surroundings and what to do if someone tries to grab them.

Make sure they have a buddy system until the point where you feel they can be reliable . Every child is different

Nope

Pick your children everyday .don't leave them wonder in front of the school

Do not send your child to school in a red state. You cannot fix stupid!

let them be themselves , but make sure they are going to school!

your child should never be alone

Teach them the "don't take candy from strangers" and a "stranger" does not become a friend just because you have seen him many times, some of which he is "innocently" giving out candy to your classmates. Hopefully your child will voluntarily mention this guy and you can be sure from then on out to pick up your child from school.

Homeschool if at all possible

with all that is going on with children being taken they should be with an adult until they are old enough for you to feel confident that they will not get in a strangers car--also teach them a safe password to be used when someone you trust picks them up Its terrible how things are today I notice more people driving their kids to and from school

always be available to your kids to pick up or drop off

No comment

Partner with another parent

Keep a eye on thim

keep a good eye on your kids!!

Don't let your kids walk to school alone because it isn't safe.

as d'enfants

Be sure there is an adult at the bus stop -- even if it has to be you!

I have no children. good luck.

Have a SAFE WORD, tell them to run and scream if someone approaches them, have a safe neighbor or place to run to

Quietly put some kind of tracker on them

Zzzzzzzzzz
