[quote=Anonymous]When I had my first kid, my family definitely pushed me to buy a car -- "it's necessary when they're babies; all those trips to the doctor; etc." I didn't get one because it seemed (and still seems) like more trouble than it's worth since I love downtown and most things like my ped have excellent metro access but terrible parking. But I'm curious -- does anyone with older kids continue to manage without a car? When did you start feeling a car was necessary? I'm thinking of moving in the next few years and if we end up in a small city/town, I think a car will regretfully become necessary; but if we end up sticking to a big city with solid public transit (e.g. Tokyo) I can definitely see myself avoiding cars for the foreseeable future. My oldest also get violently carsick so I admit that plays into my disinclination to rely on cars for getting her anywhere.[/quote]
