Hard to abduct a kid with dad following the entire way.

OTOH, in uber lib Austin, TX they let little kindergarteners on city buses by themselves - https://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3710912/posts. What could possibly go wrong with a 5 year old alone on public transportation?? Yet, libs are getting upset with this father.

Yes, it’s amazing how libs think. Totally get the irony.

I saw little kids—1st or 2nd grade—riding trains in Tokyo alone. Of course Japan is a different culture.
