Today, Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani and Parks Commissioner Tricia Shimamura announced the launch of NYC Parks’ first-ever Parents’ Night Out, a free, one-night drop-off program that gives parents and caregivers the opportunity to enjoy an evening to themselves while children participate in supervised fun at select NYC Parks recreation centers across the five boroughs.
You’d have to torture me in very brutal ways before I’d contemplate something like this, but leaving that aside, what kind of a kid would agree to participate? A very young child would be terrified. A kid my daughter’s age wouldn’t want to go if her friends aren’t there.
The gay dude is childless, so I understand that he doesn’t get it, but I’m pretty certain Shimamura has children.
