Why are you allowed to go to school on your own? Exploring children's voices on independent mobility

Idoia Legorburu et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the reasons why 1002 children and adolescents go to school alone or accompanied, and explored the influence of parents on their choice. The findings suggest that children who can go to school alone feel more trusted by their parents. Additionally, children who live close to school are more likely to commute autonomously and perceive a safer environment. Gender differences in autonomous travel to school were found to be significant, mainly due to parental influence. In conclusion, targeted interventions should be developed to support children's autonomous walking and address parents' concerns.
