[quote=Anonymous]"make sure she doesn't talk to adults but she can talk to young teenegers" I'd say the reverse. On a crowded subway, I think the risk of an adult causing her harm is basically zero. However, the risk of being picked on or bullied by other kids of similar or slightly older age could be a risk - though it varies greatly depending on neighborhood and the child. But it's not an all or nothing. For a few days (or however long it takes for you to both be comfortable), go with her. Then take the subway and let her walk from the station. Then go on subway but stay on train and let her walk the rest of the way. Then drop her off at the subway. And so on.[/quote]
