[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There’s no solution that will make everyone happy, but most parents don’t have tons of children and can afford to take a half day or even a full day off work for this one-time special milestone event in each of their children’s lives. People were already driving a half hour from their house to graduation ceremony venues before; you’ll survive driving an extra 45 minutes. There will be traffic, but there was traffic to contend with when people drove to the previous venues as well. This is not the hardship you’re making it out to be.[/quote] Not everyone drives, not everyone can afford to take off work, and people have other commitments like younger kids, the elderly, health issues, etc. Driving 1-1.5 hours is a big hardship for us, and it means if I'm not having a good day, I will miss it and cannot drive that far alone so it's not like I can just show up late. So, the best I will get is a video of my kids.[/quote]
