Great, than you understand why I would rather my kids not walk home after school. They do have a choice and they choose to be picked up.

| Hello. My thought (although not asked for)on the subject of children (Highschool Children) not walking home from school is that your children will probably end up afraid of everything and have a anxiety disorder over it. |

| Hmmmmmm - Sorry Home - I disagree profoundly with you. There are areas of this city in which you really don't want your kid walking home in. It's a parent's call and since you don't know where these people live, it's unfair of you to make such a judgement call. |

Thanks Court. My kids are very independent. I think my picking them up is more because they are too lazy to walk! LOL I have walked /driven them to and from school since preschool. My daughter works and is going off to college next fall. She is not disturbed because I drive and pickup from school. My youngest would be walking alone both ways if I did not drive her. She is in a school ouside of our district since we lived there when she started school and we did not want to switch after we moved. My son would walk everyday, but since I am going his way anyways he comes with me. I work evenings so I like to spend a few minutes with them before I am off to work. And they even stay home alone if their dad is not home on time which happens a lot since he works a ton of overtime.

I saw that....things are changing, aren't they? It isn't just the holidays; we had robberies over the spring and summer - unless someone wants to suggest that the robbers didn't want to miss the Memorial Day or July 4th holiday sales or something.
I share your frustration. Let's hope the police catch the perps! |

I don't understand why it is so easy to rob the bank INSIDE a supermarket. There are people around everywhere in there and anyone with sunglasses or a hat should be noticed before they even get up to the counter. This is ridiculous
I am an average resident of Everett who would like to see more communication about anything and everything to do with Everett |

It made the news? I listened to it on the scanner and I knew of a few of the young adults who were involved. I do not believe they are gang members at all, just punks who need to grow up. Isn't there something we can do about people who live in public housing commiting crimes? I know in some places it would cost them their apartments. One of these young adults is constantly startig fights with people.

| The Everett Housing Authority does evict those accused of crimes. It can be a long process and would probably go to court. At that point you hope you don't get a soft judge. |

Not to make light of a crime, but this was a domestic situation between a husband and wife. Just so we do not have people thinking we have some stranger going around stabbing people. By the way you all need to get scanners. I get all my news from them.

I naturally assumed it was gang related.
Thanks for the clarification, Sally
