- blattimwind 8y agoIt says a lot about a society when "let her kid ride the subway alone" is enough to get the parent a Wikipedia bio.
- ycombobreaker 8y agoLenore is directly referenced in the article! She is the Free-Range Kids blogger.
- jessaustin 8y agoOdd that the headline skimmer didn't expect that...
- nisse72 8y agoHaha I read the article but didn't actually remember the subway woman's name until I googled for the story.
- valenciarose 8y agoI rode the subway alone in NYC at the age of 10, during the 70s when the city and its subways were substantially more dangerous than they are now.
