Never wait in the school car line again. Here’s how. For the first time in decades, a small but critical mass of children are riding their bikes safely to school again in the US.

I don't have kids, and I haven't gone to school in...checks calendar....a very long time. WTF do some parents drive kids to school when there are school busses? What am I out of the loop on? We either walked or took the bus when I was a kid. Don't the parents have shit to do?
A lot of places don't have buses and the roads aren't safe for kids to cycle anymore. The assumption is that if you're a parent, you just have to "make time" some-crazy-how.
Latch key kids are also not as much of a thing anymore. I absolutely loved when my mom worked so we'd get that couple of hours of unsupervised time to ourselves.
I can't imagine being a kid today with the constant online and in-person bullying combo. Was bad enough when I was a kid. One of my friends has a kid who just graduated HS. His grades and overall happiness went way up during the pandemic lockdown, and he continued to do online classes.
