Where is D.S.S when you need them?

It is the saddest thing ever to watch elementary school age children forced to walk to and from school without adult supervision. I totally get the whole notion that parents have to work to support their family, but who is responsible for the children, who are home alone and must get themselves ready? The kids i'm referencing are on or about 7 & 8 years old.

Do you really believe these children are responsible enough to handle this task? My answer would be NO, everyday I watch these children cross the streets, without looking, riding their bikes or scooters without any concern for the cars or other children. Where is the Department of Social Services when you need them? Sure there are crossing guards but they are only certain sections of the streets. The state of Nevada is killing me with what is considered priority.....
