    A lot of places don’t have buses and the roads aren’t safe for kids to cycle anymore. The assumption is that if you’re a parent, you just have to “make time” some-crazy-how.

      Latch key kids are also not as much of a thing anymore. I absolutely loved when my mom worked so we’d get that couple of hours of unsupervised time to ourselves.

      Thanks for the explanation. I should have known it’s the usual lack of proper infrastructure.
