Hi List,
A question about having others transport your children. My husband and I
are both blind and have two kids. What do those of you who both parents do
not drive think about others transporting your kids? By others I mean
parents of your kids friends.
For instance, one of my kids was invited to a bowling birthday party. The
mother indicated that she would just swing by and pick my daughter up. In
the past I have insisted on going with my daughter. However, as she is
getting older it is not as customary for parents to always attend birthday
events etc. I am feeling troubled by this as our society has become more
involved in text messaging while driving and talking on cell phones. There
is just such a level of trust letting others transport your kids. What do
you all think especially those who do not drive or do not have a driving
person in the home.
Thanks in advance for sharing your thoughts.
