I don't think there was any leash with my parents in the first place. I started walking home when I was 6--in first grade. I think I might've done it sooner but I went to kindergarten with nun teachers and they insists that the children go home with an adult relative. It's very normal for kids to walk home alone in Vietnam. It's actually rare that a parent comes to school to pick up his/her kid. But that's over 15 years ago, I'm sure things have changed since then.
