> Driving Kids :- Taxi, bus, chauffeur, again have been around for ages, auto drive cars are not that far away, but will you be willing to abandon your kids to the machine?

Are they willing to abandon kids to the machine?

iPhones, iPads, Nintendo's, dvd players, netflix?

What's one more "machine" taking care of kids?

True. I was more considering the average helicopter parent allowing a machine to drive their kids to school or some such.

Hell... I would think those types (Helicopter) would be the first in line.

Think of it... self flying vehicles that control where your kids go.

That's right up there with iPhone tracking your kid.
