@BillHeyman @BesienKrist @paulg @eshear I grew up in Tokyo and NYC in the 90s, navigating both subways. The experience was positive and formative. Crime everywhere has plummeted since then. We are hamstringing our kids' maturation by overprotecting them due to social media-stoked fear. pewresearch.org/short-reads/20…

@BesienKrist @paulg @eshear I’m using metro as a stand-in for public transportation, which is available in most medium- and large-sized cities. How many parents today would feel comfortable having their young child navigate alone, say, the New York City subway system? We need a new social compact.

The inexorable decrease in kids' ranges. (via @eshear)
