Mark McCullough, 32, of Glentham, England, said he received a letter Friday from Lincolnshire County Council informing him that he must accompany his daughter, Isabelle, to her Normanby-by-Spital Primary School bus stop every day or it will be reported as a "child protection issue," the Lincolnshire Echo reported Monday. Advertisement The letter said the driver of the bus has been helping Isabelle cross Caenby Road when she is dropped off at the end of the day. "It's more than upsetting, it has made me angry. I am happy for Isabelle to walk from home to the end of the road and, if necessary, cross a country lane and walk home," McCullough said. "I'm not going to wrap them up in cotton wool," he said of his children.
