Wasn’t anybody here a 6 year old at one time?

My younger brother walked 10 blocks to the local Alberstons grocery store when he was 5.

When they found him, he was pushing a cart filled with toys and candy. My mom nearly had a heart attack over that one.

If she only knew the things we did!

Yep, I was telling my mom stories about us kids as youngsters and what we did while she and dad were at work and all she could say was “I didn’t know that.” and “I’m glad I didn’t find out.”

I did something similar when I was 5. My Mom still reminds me how much it scared her. I'm 50. :D

Your experience reminds me of this FR thread from 2005:

Boy, 5, in cake run

A PECKISH five-year-old boy slipped unnoticed from his school and took a bus to the local supermarket to buy cake.
