[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Forget busses.  Get up, smell the roses, and walk your kids to school.  Then pick them up and walk back home.  Yes, this is what we do every day.  We love talking with our kids on the way home about what happened and we all benefit from the exercise.  And our kids get directly to and from school without a dreary long school bus ride.

It's important to remember that Washington DC, at its widest, is only ten miles wide so all school commutes are shorter than that, usually MUCH shorter.  Public transportation and walking are quite viable methods of transportation here.

I've no doubt this post will generate a chorus of replies stating why walking is impossible to do for reasons of parent's work or whatever.  Well, we deal with the same issues.  Guess what, it is possible.  We simply choose not to manage our lives around a car, and it has made all the difference. [/quote]

What an ass you are. People have kids in multiple schools at disparate locations. It is great that you walk your kids in. Not everyone can do this in a reasonable time frame. You see Virginia, not everyone in the world has the same privilege as you do. Because with the wealth of living in these  close in neighborhoods comes enormous privilege. ENORMOUS PRIVILEGE.[/quote]
