[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When i was a teen sitter, the family who hired me drove me every time, w/o exception. We lived in a rural area though, so mass transit and biking or walking weren't options. There was one family who lived at the end of our rode within easy walking distance and i'd walk to their house and they drove me home if it was after dark.[/quote] I don't understand how living in a rural area means biking isn't an option. This is the best option for that type of situation unless working at night. I grew up in an area where we biked or walked, my parents weren't driving me all over the place.[/quote] Do you know the difference between rural and suburban? In many rural areas, homes can be separated by miles and not much is within walking/biking distance. Its easy and pretty safe to bike/walk everywhere in the suburbs, not always so in rural areas. [/quote] Yes, I do know the difference. I lived in a rural area while growing up. That is why I said biking is the best option. Unless you live in a VERY unpopulated area (like more than 20 minutes between towns), then you can easily bike around. Or unless you are a very slow bike rider, as it might take you too much time. I used to bike 30 minutes to my job at a cafe that was in the next town (if you could call it that) over.[/quote]
