    The fact that school pickup lines exist is wild.

      Sometimes, the parents forget to pick up the kids so the teachers get to decide if they leave a child all alone with no help or if the teacher works unpaid over time

        No. Bullshit. When I got cut loose from 70s-80s elementary I was on my fucking own. We could walk, ride, skate, whatever. We did not require a fucking adult to care for us. Bell rings? GTFO! BYE!

      It’s always money.

      When I first moved to the town I live in now, I was impressed by the all new schools. However I eventually realized they replaced a bunch of older neighborhood schools with a smaller number of bigger schools. They saved money by providing a worse educational experience and making walking less likely.

      We walked to my kids elementary school but the town saved money by not plowing the sidewalks in winter, nor forcing residents to. Our walk would require walking on a major street - until my ex went full Karen and made them plow

      When my kids got to middle school, we were in “walking” distance so there was no bus. However that was a full mile including crossing a six lane road whose light was always broken. We ended up choosing a private school in a different town, so there were no buses nor walkability

      Regional school districts are now common. More kids goto schools that are not even in their towns

      How do you envision kids being picked up after school? Free for all?

        In my childhood in Germany kids didn’t need to be picked up or dropped off, we either walked or took public transit (not dedicated school buses either). As far as I can tell that’s still the case where I live. It’s a very different urban design that facilitates it, and it results in more human lives in my opinion.

        We envision them taking a bus, walking, or biking home. Not them each getting picked up individually by their parents

        Well in my country if a parent comes picking up their kids by car they have to park their car and walk to the school to pick their kids up. Waiting in your idling car in front of the school while taking up the lane is not allowed.

        Just commenting to support and remind you upvote/downvote counts are not representative of correctness.

        I’m british and although it’s easy easy to believe we all walk and get thr bus, the TRUTH is 6% of our schoolchildren have fully complete end to end transport paid by the state (yes taxis) - this is usually due to negligence of the parents.

        There is a real requirement for kids to be picked up by cars and removing that option will only hurt the education of the innocent child.

        People on this site are very quick to binary extremism and would immediately struggle if given power of choice over others in real world scenarios.

        When my step-son was in elementary, 20-years ago, anything outside of a bus or parent’s car was a non-starter. Fucking pathetic.

        Get rid of this car oriented school design and make walking and biking viable again. Also school buses

        Because other countries exist?

        I used to walk to school, later bike to school, went to school in a bus etc.

        Only times I got picked up/dropped off was when I was sick or had issues with other modes of transport

    I guarantee no one here knows this man, he might be the nicest dude ever and just happens to like monster trucks or something. What the hell is wrong with you people? How about mind your own business instead of gossiping about someone who is (probably) just a random dad waiting to pick up his kid and go home to make dinner. Fucking weirdos.

        I used to live there (16 miles out of town, in the sticks) and the school bus still came. I had to walk a mile to get to the stop, because they didn’t like dirt roads. But then I got chased by a dog and my parents complained to the right people so I only had to walk like 1/4 mile to the stop from then on.

        But yeah, that’s probably still not an option everyone

        Looks like some of the trucks in my suburban neighbourhood that have never carried anything bigger than a Costco bag of dog food and an ikea chair, nor have they ever been more off road than parking on the grass at the park.

      • pennomi@lemmy.world ⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        My kids can’t ride the bus because they are “too close” to school, except it’s 1.6 miles away on a busy road with patches of no sidewalks. It would be trivial to have a bus drop them nearby but they instead want to waste the time of hundreds of parents every single day.

        Desert offloading is a popular thing in the US southwest. I’d do it as much as I could if I lived there, and had a truck like that.

        To be clear, unlike most lifted trucks, I’m just saying it has a plausible use. You could be right.
