[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did it until my kid was 10. The pandemic was my breaking point because it was harder to get rides/people didn't want my kid showing up after being on public transit. I think the hard thing about being car free is that your choices are really constrained, so maybe you like one dance studio better but the other is convenient by transit, or your kid wants to do a particular sport but it would take an hour to get there on the bus. [/quote] Also the number of doctors offices your kid can get to is limited. Preschools too. Birthday parties. And if your kid has special needs forget about it. It can take years to make it off of the wait lists for evaluation and therapy for ADHD and Autism. If you were only able to get on lists accessible by public transportation that would make the wait much longer.[/quote]
