[quote=Anonymous]Our 16 year old has flown to ballet summer programs since she was 13 and has been allowed to roam around various cities during these summers (with at least 2 peers with her) including getting herself from NJ to downtown Manhattan with a friend via bus to subway plus walking when she was 12. She did amazingly well using public transport including arriving in 1 city out west at 9 pm and getting a cab to a university and then contacting the point person to get her dorm room assignment. We found cell phones make it much less nerve wracking for parents. Most kids are eager for such responsibilities and more than capable.[/quote]
