That may be fine for those kids who get the bus in front of their house, but they don't really do that where I am anymore. I don't think buses have dropped kids off at houses on my road since the 80s, it's always been at the end of the road since then so waiting in the house isn't really doable for both needing to hear the horn and not leave the bus waiting and make it late.
My nephew is only in kindergarten this year and his stop isn't even in our own neighborhood, it's at the end of some other one down the road and past a traffic light, which for the suburbs is absurd.
I wish it was at the end of our own road, so if something happened and no one was there to get him one day he could at least safely walk home himself.
