Re: Bad parent!

My mom was a bad parent. As a child I frequently traveled all through NYC by subway and elevated train by myself. A trip to the Bronx zoo solo at age 6. Visit grandma in the Bronx all the time. Of course, that was 65-70 years ago.

My grandson age 11 lives three blocks from my house. He is not allowed to walk home by himself. Times have changed. Society has changed.

My mother from very early on wanted me to be independent. I was. Nowadays she would be called a bad parent. The WalMart mom of today though is a bad parent. What I did as a kid is not acceptable today.
