As school kicked off on Tuesday, the Ottawa Police Service warned parents via
its Twitter account not to let kids walk to school alone. The police suggested
that parents instead find a neighbour kid to walk their child to school. There’s
safety in numbers, and that’s not bad advice. But why the first half of the
tweet? Why the admonition, instead of positive advice, especially for new
parents sending their kids off to school for the first time? via
