[quote=Anonymous]My pet theory is because more people have flexible schedules, they are also more willing to drive extra trips during the day to take their children to activities after school. Of course, some of these jobs would’ve done in the past by a babysitter or someone else. But my day used to be, get up, drive (or metro) to work, drive home. Now it is, get up, drive a carpool to schools, come home, drive (or metro) to work, drive home, drive a car pool from/to school or sports or both, and maybe run an errand or two, and then dinner, with some emailing and calls here and there. And spouse is on similar schedule — a lot more variability in the day that leads to more trips.[/quote]
