European Culture- Mal

 I have noticed a few more cultural differences since our discussion this past Wednesday. The observation I noticed was how comfortable and well behaved children are on public transit. I first noticed this when I was on a train and recognized that I was sitting behind an upper elementary aged student and he was alone. I also noticed that toddlers and young pre-schoolers are really comfortable with public bus rides. This one small kid was just holding a pole next to his parent, knowing he shouldn’t talk and also knew how to balance to withstand the force of turns which I thought was really interesting (he had to be only about 5).
