Is this mean?

Is it mean to make a teenager take the city bus to school after they didnt want to get up in the morning for school because they said they were too tired from playing a basketball game the night before and had a headache? The teen does this every couple of weeks with a different reason. The real reason is usually because she was up late on her phone. The city bus stop is right at the end of our road. It takes it 15 minutes to get to the school. I have another younger child that is homeschooled and has meeetings and lessons with teachers at certain times.
