> Having kids walk to school or to the bus...

Will get family services called on you. I don't think this affects more than a handful of people in 2022.

Huh, I lived in a suburb of Cleveland a few years back where everyone still was walking. Thought it would be more common in densely populated areas. Guess not.

Common in my Bay Area suburb. People will even sell their houses when their kids get to elementary school and pay half a million more to move a mile away, so that they don't have to deal with drop-off.

What 3rd world country do you live in where kids can't walk to school or the bus?

If you're one of those people, the effects can be brutal.
