1. Brayden has sports practice/music lesson/tutoring exactly 20 minutes after school dismissal. Mom needs to be the first person in line, otherwise he will be late.
2. Brayden's little sister has one of the above things exactly 20 minutes after school dismissal and OP needs to be first in line to pick him up in order to get the sibling to her activity.
3. Mom is coming straight from pilates/yoga/orange theory/work and it's not worth it to go home first.
4. It's the only time Mom gets to listen to her favorite podcast/the latest Emily Henry audio book.
5. Mom doesn't like waiting (e.g. she'd rather sit with the car off and parking brake on than wait in line)
6. Brayden doesn't like waiting so mom has to be first.
Let me know if I missed anything!!
My kids take the bus, but when we did Kiss and Ride during Covid, I showed up 5 minutes after the bell rang and sailed through the line. Some people just don't understand that kiss and ride is a well oiled machine and once it gets going, it moves really quickly. No need to show up until the line is already moving.
So long story short, you’re jealous of people that can afford to prioritize their kids’ sports or have the leisure time and money to do Pilates midday.
