The other morning I was driving through the neighborhood and passed the corner where the kids all wait for their school bus – always with their parents, either standing with them outside or staying in their cars. On this late-summer day, there was a group of kids with a lemonade stand, not one adult or chaperone to be seen. It was a lovely reminder of childhood innocence, though it made me wonder: why is it ok for them to be out on the corner selling lemonade with no adults today, but next week when school starts they all need their parents with them while they wait for the bus?
Do criminals only strike during the school year?
The power of summer…
