    Not in most of europe, where kids can usually go to school by themselves, either by walking, biking or public transport. It’s all about city planning.

    Helicopter parents driving their children to and from school are a big nuisance and safety concern here.

      If your child is very sick, walking, biking or public transport would not be the best way to get them out of a school.

        There have to be excemptions for those very rare cases of course. Just like there are for fire trucks in case the school building is on fire.

        But if children are too sick to walk, an ambulace might be a better solution perhaps?

          Are you seriously suggesting that it is worth wasting an ambulance and a team of EMTs’ time when the problem could easily solved by the parent picking up the child and taking them to the doctor?

            It seems I have to repeat myself here: There have to be excemptions for those very rare cases of course.
