[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Much respect to the families with multiple kids. We have one and I cannot imagine getting more then one to the activities that he likes doing. During the school year we have one after school enrichment, one sport, Cub Scouts, and swimming. DS has flat out said no to tennis because he likes having some free days during the week. He asks to do the sport, enrichment, and Cub Scouts but those are more then enough.

I have no clue how people with multiple kids get them to everything. I mean, I do, because I see the carpooling and have picked up friends kids at school so they could go to event X with us, but it strikes me as so much more challenging.[/quote]

Op here. I haven’t found anyone to carpool with. We are new to area AND live in a high traffic area. It can take 30 minutes to drive 2 miles during rush hour.

In our old neighborhood, practice times were also during rush hour and even though traffic wasn’t quite as bad, it was still bad. Driving 1 mile to pick up friend was a huge inconvenience. We swapped favors when in a bind but it was never a regular thing.[/quote]
