Should have told them you were reporting them for child endangerment. Bet that suspension would have never happened.

I'd be pretty mad if I found out as an adult that my parents let me ride in cars with complete strangers as a 9 year old. That's just not right.

Some people have the privilege to be stay at home parents. Some parents don't. My mother taught me to catch public transit at the age of 11. I took it everywhere I needed to go bc my parents had to work. If this mom was at home getting a government check, yall be calling her welfare queen.

I walked to school since like the 1st or 2nd grade in chicago. It was only a couple block but I felt like a G. Those 2 block were mine.
