The Anonymous Widower

Three Young Children

It is often said, that children are too protected these days.

But a couple of days ago, I was walking to the bus and noticed three children, where the eldest was about six waiting impeccably for the pedestrian lights to change, so they could cross the road.

A few seconds later they walked quickly across the road on the green and joined the queue at the bus stop to wait for the bus.

It was immaculate behaviour, by those that are generally not given that level of responsibility for their own safety.

Incidentally, my mother used to take me to the 107 bus, when I was about six or seven and sit me in the back by the conductor to send me to my aunt’s house in Enfield.

I wonder if this will start to happen on the New Bus for London?
