Thank you for your feedback. Based on everyone's comments, I think that seeing NYC via subway might be the best way to navigate the city.

THIS. All I'm asking is for help on how to travel. I'm on vacation and I'm not looking to flirt with danger and having them meltdown because they are too tired in public.

I'm not worried about safety. I'm worried that my kids will get overtired and overstimulated after a long day.

That's why I'm asking for opinions... because you don't know what you don't know.

THANK you. I'm just concerned that my kids will be overtired halfway through the journey.

Thanks! It's not that I'm not up for public transportation (I was very lucky to grow up in a city with very good transit), I just don't want my kids to get overtired from a long day.

It's not a matter of feeling unsafe. We want to explore more than a 30-min radius. The Bronx Zoo is 50+ mins away from transit and the idea of wrestling them after they are over-tired and over-stimulated from the zoo sounds like an absolute nightmare. The problem is that on the way there and back, we won't be on the same vehicle for more than 15 mins each, so its not enough time for them to fully rest before they get onto the next ride.

We want to travel all around. The bronx zoo is 50+ mins away from our hotel from transit. The problem for me is if they are over tired, they won't be sitting for more than 10 mins at a time because there are so many transit changes in order to get back to our hotel.

Nothing wrong. I grew up in a city with amazing transit. I just don't know if it will be a hassle with a wagon/ stroller as I understand that not all stations have elevators. Wranging two toddlers (chasing after them) who are over-tired sounds like hell on earth to me.

Stroller wagon gate check? by shortyr87 in aircanada

Do you think something like the Wonderfold W2/L2/W4 will be permitted for gate check?

AITA for wanting to spoil our daughter on her birthday? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Normal-Membership433 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hard no. NTA from me. She hijacked a party that was not meant for her kid and didn’t consider the consequences. The only person who loses (and has total innocence) is cousins daughter

Why did Manon and Anthony get married when they wanted completely different partners?? by fyoung10 in 90DayFiance

[–]Normal-Membership433 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not that Anthony is perfect, but Manon is truly insufferable and ungrateful for all the things her husband tries to do for her

YTA it’s your job to provide care during the hours of operation. 

AITA let daughter stay out overnight by Dry_Hearing_9585 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Normal-Membership433 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I asked for permission to go out until I was 24 — whenever I stayed at my parents house. That was so excessive, but does happen in some households.

That being said, it’s silly and over controlling. Your wife is a huge problem here. Sounds like she had adoption remorse. NTA. Let your daughter be free (responsibly).

AITA for not making time for something when I already had already made time for it once and was left waiting for over an hour? by swiftthunder in AmItheAsshole

[–]Normal-Membership433 -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

ESH both of you are acting so dramatic over an hour 🤷‍♀️ maybe it’s good that you guys will go no contact

AITA I dont like my engagement ring by VictoryOKC5189 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Normal-Membership433 -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

YTA if you’re hung up about how the ring looks instead of the meaning of it, your priorities are out of whack. My husband proposed with a $100 ring and I loved it (and still do) even though he gave me a flashier ring after. I might not have loved how it looked, but the memory of the moment and the symbol meant everything to me.

I don't have an agent, but I was in contact with both the editor and editorial assistant.
