Going To School In The Dark

School age children should not have to wait at a bus stop before the sun comes up. Because the bus comes at 6:25 am, my daughter has to get up at 5:30 am to get ready for school and be at the bus stop 5 minutes before the bus comes because it may come early. Sometimes the bus is 5 to 15 minutes late. She is afraid of standing alone on a corner watching strange cars, walkers and joggers pass her by. she feels that she can be snatched at any second. This is frightening. Our children should not have to be subjected to this. Make buses pick up children when the sun comes out which means schools have to start later. This would help parents from worrying about kidnappers.
