[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone in our family owns rain boots, pants, jackets, and umbrellas. And that's that. I understand people who are sick or have little kids with them trying to avoid rain. Besides that I (not grown up in the US) honestly believe most DC people must be made from sugar. That's how much everyone avoids rain. Our kids walk, no matter the weather. Only if it's not safe do they not walk. Hasn't happened yet. Don't think it will any time soon.

In general the parents in our neighborhood all pick up their kids from the bus stop. And I am talking a one street cul-de-sac neighborhood that has about 20 houses. Not more. And it's a circle. So yeah...getting from the bus to ANY house in the entire neighborhood takes a maximum of less than 5 minutes by foot. It's absolutely ridiculous and nothing else.[/quote]

Nanny with the toddler and three elementary charges.  In your case, all three kids would walk.  I've turned down several positions that coddle the kids and turn them into entitled monsters, but that's not my current position.[/quote]
