[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you can’t/won’t move or get a car, don’t go WOTP for ES. You will no longer have the lovely lifestyle you have now. Your kids will be on unreliable public transport during rush hour every day and that’s a big family stressor. [/quote] I don't find the metro (how our middle schooler commutes) to be unreliable. Though we are a "car-light" family and use it to get to activities that aren't convenient on transit.[/quote] Depends on the school. For those right on Metro (Murch, Ross, Janney?), it’s not bad, even remembering that OP will have to go with two or three young children who can’t ride by themselves. If on a bus line (OP mentions Eaton and Hearst), it gets less reliable and much more of a hassle with two or three ES age kids. Our kids have gotten to school on foot, by bike and car, and on Metro and the bus. [/quote]
