Times have changed for kids walking to school

Regarding the May 16 letter (Glenn Suchomel “When did kids walking to school become issue?”):
I'm sure that your
children who walked
1.1 miles did not have the traffic, the predators or the construction that Cedar Rapids has now. Since your children either walked or rode with someone's parent, maybe you could come to Cedar Rapids and drive the children whose parents are unable to drive them.
And no, I do not have children or grandchildren who have to walk to school in Cedar Rapids, which I am very grateful.
