[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank god I grew up in the 80's. My wonderful parents would tell us to be in by dark. No cell phones, no Uber, no social media.

Teenagers have it rough these days. [/quote]

Op here. This is how I grew up. Most of my friends were raped in the age 15-17. [/quote]

That's how I grew up too, and as far as I know, none of them were raped. There, now we have two anecdotes. Also, how would cell phones, Uber, and social media have prevented this?[/quote]

+1 Now instead of riding their bikes or getting a ride from a parent they are ubering around to friends' houses, to the mall, etc.  I don't know that this is safer...[/quote]

No not instead of but  in addition to walking, riding their bike, taking metro, taking a Ride On.

My kids ride their bikes/walk/bus/metro and uber... if it is pouring rain or if it is too far or the metro does not go there, they might uber. or if there is construction on the shoulder (this happened on the street between our house and the pool) they ubered once because I was visiting a sick family member.

I drive them 1000/1001 times. But every blue moon they uber.

Why do you picture kids raised like wolves ubering everywhere when we are talking about 10x a year tops.

Also, my 16 year old ubering was way less expensive than adding him to my car insurance. [/quote]

eh, Op was talking about her daughter's friends ubering over to the mall during break time at one of their activities.  And other posters were saying that polite parents offer to pitch in on this sort of ubering.[/quote]
