If the weather is inclement and the bus isn't always exactly on time, it makes sense to go in your car and wait in your car.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

I remember walking through the woods to my bus stop standing in -25C weather in the winter lol. Nobody's parents drove them. Listen to "significant other" on your walkman and deal with the elements. Sack was full of hair by 5th grade.

But seriously, it's not one size fits all. It really depends on so many factors.

More surprising is the ones that drive their kids to school even though there is a bus. We have an elementary school across the road from us and the line of parents in the afternoon waiting to pick their kids up literally stretches over half a mile down the road.

You'd never put your kids on a bus if you knew the things I know.

My cousin lives in a rural area, so my uncle made him push the truck out of the neighborhood down his dirt road for exercise every day.

Ohhhhhhh but little jimmy will get cold.

These. Bus stops aren't always right there a block away anymore. A lot don't even go in neighborhoods anymore. When my son was in high school he had to walk to opening of neighborhood to catch the bus when he was at my house and had to walk pretty far down a back road that didn't have sidewalks when he was at his dads house. If it was raining or really bad weather I'd drive him to it when he was at my house. Sometimes the bus just wouldn't stop and I'd have to hurry and drive him to the next stop. I was ok with him walking because of his age. I wouldn't have been if he'd been younger.

So you think a 1.5hour walk in the dark up a mountain on a blind corner road with no sidewalk starting at 5am which would mean waking up around 4 so I could do all my farm chores would have been appropriate. Got it.

Yeah better to live in a bubble all childhood, then stay in your parents basement through adulthood.

The bus was the GOAT. Spit wads, super soakers, fights.... It was like school but without rules. If you were a scared pussy, you sat up front.

So annoying. I live in a cul de sac and drive my kids 200 feet to the corner. The driver pulls in then backs out into traffic.

Hey you dumb bitch why donโ€™t you just come all the way down and you can just do a loop so you donโ€™t have to back out into traffic.

I've seen parents when it's mildly cold, drive their kids to the end of the driveway so they can wait in a warm car for the bus that stops at their house. I'm talking 45F cold.

Like with any situation in life, you need to live in the grey and not think of these things in black/white ways, which is usually reductive and ignorant. It's not a driving or not driving issue, it depends. Claiming kids are 'pussies' outright because they get driven somewhere is an odd way to think about it. But then again, many folks here seem to think in absolutes.

Kids are grown now, but they all rode the bus. Good neighborhood, so no issues on the bus. We have a neighbor that literally drives her kids across the road to the school.

Some parents are pathologically worried and anxious about their kids and unfortunately don't have enough self-awareness to notice that their behaviour is actually harming rather than helping their kids.

Self-fulfilling prophecy of piss.

We had a couple of those when I was in school, but the sheer volume is what surprises me. Literally a couple hundred kids being driven to/from a single school every day.

I can see that nowadays but that never happened when I was a kid. We all just rode the bus. Most of the time we all got along but there were some instances of bullying for sure. However, when my grade became the oldest grade, we really didn't pick on the younger kids. It was actually really chill overall. I don't know what happened there. You'd expect there to be at least a few insecure pricks picking on younger kids. We all just went to parties, shotgunned beers, hung out. The metalheads, the punks, the skaters, the rappers, the normies, the preppies, etc. Almost like a miracle.

Depends on how far away the bus is, and what type(s) of neighborhoods they'd need to traverse to get there. I can say for sure that there's a lot more degenerate filth out there than I was a kid that needs to be kept in mind by parents of today so they avoid the bums of the world.

There is an elementary school by me right in the center of a nice upper-middle class neighborhood. The hundreds of cars that roll in for afternoon pick-up is mind blowing. I'd love to see the average mileage commute taken for those commutes. I'd bet big money it's well under a mile, with zero major roads crossed.

Are there buses for the school? It's pretty common in these parts that some school boards have no buses or they're on strike, etc. When I was a kid, some friends went to another school that didn't have a bus system, so they had to take city buses through bad parts of town. I recall my parents not wanting to send me to that school because they didn't want me to take the public buses through bad parts of town as a kid. Went to a school with the classic yellow buses. Still have a fond attachment to those. It was a little world on its own.

It's pretty crazy nowadays. Hate to sound like "that old man," but I always walked to school even when I was living in Wyoming with a foot of snow on the ground. Granted, it was only about a mile and a half.


Now the bus comes to your front door. It's absurd.
