[quote=Anonymous]I was raised in NYC and am raising my kid in the city. I always tell her "You HAVE to be careful, because not everyone else is." But does she always look before crossing? No. And what happened Monday? She was crossing the street ten feet in front of her friend, and a taxi raced through a red light and ran over her friend's foot. Maybe now she'll listen. I do not recommend running over your kid's foot. But point out the person standing by the door on their phone, and how easy it'd be for you to steal it and walk off the train right as the doors close. Point out when you're walking down the street and a car is idling and a skeevy looking driver is in the car. Point out adults hanging around playgrounds who are not attached to kids playing there. Talk about what to do if your kid misses their stop - this happens a lot. Teach them how to get off and go backwards. [/quote]
