[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m curious ( not judging) why you don’t want to carpool? Is it because you can’t do everyone so you’d rather do no one? My kid does one camp that is 10 mins away and I don’t feel the need to carpool. Pre Covid though she also did an art camp 25/30 mins away and I totally wanted to carpool. Shared the drive with 3 other moms so only had to drive once in one direction every other day. [/quote] Not the OP but these are the reasons I have said no: 1) I don't like other people making me late 2) They had a transportation/schedule problem in general and really needed to hire someone, not pretend they wanted to share rides 3) The kid was unruly 4) The kid incessantly asked for playdates at our house and even when I refused the parents encouraged it (because hey, why not get some free babysitting too) 5) I just didn't feel like it because I liked having no commitments [/quote]
