Accident – Death – Obituary News : A mother who recently moved to Italy from the United States has shared her experience of feeling more at ease allowing her child to walk to school alone without any fear. She captured the moment her child left the house independently, stepping into the street with excitement. Despite her professed confidence in the city’s safety, the mother discreetly used a camera to track her child’s movements, either to confirm his safety or to demonstrate how secure the city was.

After relocating from the United States to Italy, a mother shared how much more comfortable she felt letting her child walk to school alone. She recorded her child’s first solo journey, capturing his excitement as he stepped out of the house and onto the bustling street. Despite her outward confidence in the safety of their new city, the mother discreetly used a camera to monitor his progress, both to ensure his safety and to highlight how secure the area truly was.

In her own words:

“You moved from America to Italy it and finally feel comfortable letting your 11-year-old walk to school by himself without freaking out. I am at peace, my mind is at ease, and my stress is zero to none when it comes to letting my child be independent abroad. For the record, I would not feel comfortable letting my Black son walk around by himself in the U.S. and especially not in the evening time. Raising a child in the U.S. scares me and raising a Black Boy in the U.S. especially scares me a lot. I feel a lot more comfortable letting him walk around our little town here. It was the same when we were in Greece, he’d be gone out playing with friends and would come back home late (9.30 pm/10 pm, etc) and I didn’t freak out. Kids can walk around and get on the bus or the train by themselves and more!”
