The trick seems to be to put them on bikes. At least where I'm at kids that are riding bikes are assumed to be "free range" while kids on foot are assumed to be lost.

The implication of there being free-range kids is that the rest are factory-farmed.

Since around becoming a teen it was obvious to me that schools were less factories and more prisons that happened to have a stated goal and intended side-effect of forcing 'educational work'.

I didn't mind the work, I did mind having it assigned as homework.
