Kid alone in the street

Hi, my daughter is 10 and wants to start coming and going places alone, meaning school, or close by places, like a shop.

We live in a mainly safe place, small town in Portugal and everything is at walking distance. The main problem are cars running very fast and a certain group of people that usually won't give any problems, but at some given moments they are known for even attacking other people.

I'm not letting her go alone when it's dark or to anywhere I don't know, but I'd like to start training her about dangerous stuff and how to defend or avoid situations.

She's not very tall, and is skinny, which honestly would make it easier for someone with evil intentions to grab her.

Thanks so much for everything 💪
