[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m on a page that is very helpful (which is why I stay) but also has some parents helicoptering (adding entertainment value). I’ve seen posts asking how their DC and friends, all college students, can get downtown for an event. These are adults who should be able to figure out transportation for a fun non-school related activity. But mommy is asking the other mommies. [/quote] Yeah and if you send your kid off to college without an Uber/Lyft account, you are doing them a disservice. We encourage ours to use it when needed---better safe than sorry. But they take the school shuttles when available/feasible (for ex: they take the shuttle to shopping areas with friends, and then they might all Uber back togheter because it's easier with all their shopping bags. But they know to save $$ and take the shuttle at least one way) [/quote]
