Konnie Huq, 47, opened up about the fear she and her husband Charlie Brooker, 51, have often felt about their son making his way to school in an exclusive interview with Express.co.uk.The former Blue Peter presenter and children’s author, who is currently promoting the Green Car Cross Code, discussed how important it is to teach children about road safety in a way that recognises the dangers posed by the ever-growing presence of electric cars.Konnie explained how, now that we are “in a world where children are on screens and devices more than ever” it is more likely that their parents will give them phones earlier, meaning they are allowed to walk home alone. “Usually in most schools, if you’re about nine years old, you're allowed to walk home on your own if you live close to the school,” Konnie said.“I’ve got a son who's 10 and a son who's eight, so I'm at that pivotal stage,” she added in reference to the kids she shares with Black Mirror writer Charlie.“We live quite far from our local primary school.
