| There are parents in my neighborhood who do this even in nice weather. It's really weird. |

| Eh, I walk everywhere. If the distance is less than 1.5 miles we don't drive. But, sometimes when it rains, I break out the car. I just hate rain. It's really ok. |

| I'm driving because I'm picking them up on the way to go somewhere other than home. |

| I drive sometimes bc I'm coming from work and I don't have time to park in the garage and then walk up. But maybe by saying soccer mom you don't mean WOHM, not sure. |

I picked up today because the toddler was sick and I didn't want him to have to wait in the rain.
Basically - don't judge other people because you don't know what they have going on. |

They could be coming from work or errands and don't have time to go home, park and walk.
They could be picking up and going somewhere else. I pick up my son from school and if he ever has activities after school, the absolute worst thing I can do is try to go home for 10 to 20 minutes. It is impossible to get him back out. So I could see why some parents would want to pick up, get them in the car, and go. |

| 3 out of the 5 days I pick up the kids on my way home from spending 2 hrs at a nearby hospital with our therapy dog. Some days we walk to the hospital then to school then to home. But not in the rain. I am so sorry this bugs you. I guess I will change my volunteering so as not to be judged by bitches like you. |

Not counting sentence structure? |
