I'm 42 and I STILL don't walk alone.

My grandparents and cousins used to own a 5000+ acre cattle ranch where they also lived. Even there, completely enclosed, safe from any human predators, we STILL weren't allowed to go out of hearing or visual distance. Why? Because we could have fallen off our bikes, been attacked by a bull (yeah, I know, but when you're a kid, you find it fun to tease them), fallen off the hay storage floor of a barn, etc. Was this EVER a problem? No! It took all of 3 seconds to find someone to go out and play, lol!

Why take chances these days? Under what circumstances MUST a child, male or female, HAVE to be on the street alone?

You can bet these parents are wishing they'd picked that child up or had her walk with someone.
