[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow. I'm surprised at all of these responses - NP here. How far are you from FH metro? If anything pick him up There, although that is highly unnecessary to me. Though I am also a new yorker who began riding the bus and train by myself at 10 or 11 and by 13 I was going an hour each way on two different trains. The trains are NOT deserted after rush hour (these posters just probably don't ride enough to know). You can tell him to avoid the first and last car, which are less full. Teach him exactly how to go and hell be fine. I cannot believe how over-sheltered children are now. How on earth do you expect them to become self-sufficient? [/quote] I agree. I'm still in my 20s and was on the Metro here in DC going everywhere alone at 13. I still see kids around that age alone and they don't stick out. Unless your son is impressionable, he should be fine. I can totally see picking him up from FH metro in the evening if that makes you feel better.[/quote]
