[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 330075, member: 1963"] Back when I was growing up in Chicago, the school districts where laid out in such a way that no student had to travel more than 2 city miles (sixteen blocks) to school. The only bus service available was for students in special programs (I was in a gifted program and had to walk to my home school to catch the bus to my special school's district) Now the kids get discount or free bus passes to go to and from school. My dad travelled for work. My mother didn't drive back then. It never even occurred to me to ask for a ride. We just bundled up and walked there and back. In highschool I tried taking the bus but couldn't take the constant bullying. I rode my bike or walked to school instead. [/QUOTE]
