Talk Back: First Day of School Concerns?

What worries you most when you send your child off to school for the first day?

The first day of school is almost here in Babylon. And many parents will be sending their little ones off to class for the first time.

As a parent what's your biggest fear for your child? Do you worry about their venturing out without you for the first time? Does the bus and the behavior of other kids concern you? Deep down do you worry about their ability to make friends? Or are general safety or bullying at the top of your list?
