[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you live out of the way of most of these kids and families, OP? One family we know who requests rides lives in Brookland, which is 30+ minute drive from the activity and then another 30+ minutes back to our place so adds well over an hour to my day if we give the kid a ride. I did it once to be nice, but that's just too much. I work, too, but am available for my kid since I have a somewhat flexible schedule. I would help in an emergency but a regular occurrence is not acceptable.

The other kids (twins) we know who always need rides have a SAHM that is always out sailing or going on retreats and has them try to mooch rides from others; she never, ever reciprocates and the dad works "so *obviously* he just can't do it!" I only give the kids a ride if they and my kid have prearranged plans together.[/quote]

Op here. We are in what’s probably considered an ex-urb of the DMV, all of the team members are zoned to the high school and within 10/15 minutes or less of the school and each other given town size.[/quote]
