I must admit, I rarely if ever drove my kids to school

I walked or cycled with them, this being the Netherlands, and generally shared this duty equally with the missus. Who got to take them to school on a particular day depended largely on our teaching schedules. Taking kids to school was quite an enjoyable "chore", certainly beating changing diapers.

Of course, as adolescence appeared on the distant horizon, the kids wouldn't be seen dead with their dad or mum bringing them to school. Their street cred would be out of the window! I mean, parents are SO embarrassing!
