Should I drive them or not?
Just because I have a car my kids want me to drive them to school. Shouldn't they have to walk 2 miles to school up-hill both ways like I had to?

@Ian123 Initially, I thought that, too... but, reading the replies, I saw that they have the option to go to school on the bus, yet they choose not to.
If you can't drive or your car is broken down, you still have to get yourself to work somehow, be it on the bus, cycling or walking. If you don't want to go to work on the bus, your boss will take a dim view of you ringing in to say "Hey, dad won't drive me to work today, so I'm not coming in at all".
Now I think that these children need to learn about responsibility and consequences of their choices. It will do them well to know that they still have the responsibility to get themselves to school on time and that their choices in life come with consequences that they might not like much at all.

@HootyTheNightOwl I suppose it depends on how they鈥檝e been brought up and how old they are. If it鈥檚 a secondary school yes they should go on the bus
