Hi all posting here for traffic hope it's ok, my son is 8 (yr 3) and is allowed to walk home from school ( 5 minute walk - same estate no main roads) he is also allowed to call his friend who lives up the road can go to the local park in daylight and to the corner shop! His friend is allowed to do the same but I have noticed that bar from the odd one or two children in his class then none of the other children are allowed any of this freedom! I'm just wondering what age you think is suitable for children to be out unsupervised! Is 8 too young in your opinion!

To post here to ask what age people think it reasonable for children to play out alone!
