I am curious, do kids still walk to school. I moved from Norfolk, Va. to Florida when I was in 3rd grade. From then on, I had to walk to school until I was a senior and had my own car. (which I paid for all by myself) The bad part about it was I had to carry lots of heavy books cause I did a lot of studying. I guess that is why most kids were not overweight back then.
I got a check in the mail for $55 today to pay me back for a car tow I had last month. I will use that, the $1 for the braves win and $2 for a no use gas day yesterday, to add to the challenge.
Prev. total $7550.00
today 58.00
new total $7608.00

My son has issues with attention so I could see him stopping to play along the way and getting to school an hour or so late so I will not let him walk until he matures a bit.
Once he gets to be 9 I will let him walk home from school, but not to school unless he matures quiet a bit between now and then. It is my job as his parent to make sure he gets to school and on time and I cant do that unless I drop him off on the way to work. Maybe in the future when he is older it might be another story.
