I was wondering how people who live in cities in carless mode manage when they have kids. Since I could not find by simply skimming the comments, I searched for "kids" keyword, but so far it only appears twice in 200+ comments. Do people move out of cities immediately when they have kids or they have no opinion about this topic?

- freddie_mercury 7y agoI live in an Asian city of 13 million people. Only the exceptionally rich own cars here. (There is a 100% import tax on top of the vast difference in incomes between here and the US.) Millions of families raise children here without a car just fine. They would be amazed to learn that you think it is impossible. Even if they moved out of the city, they still wouldn't be able to afford a car, anyway.
- Mashimo 7y agoI live in Denmark, don't have a kids though. While I bike myself I often see parents who transport their kids in bikes with 2 front wheels and a box. They also got a cover and are thus protected from the elements. Also busses and trains have areas for baby strollers. At some point kids can also bike them self. I don't know how many are completely carless. I don't think I know a parent who is. Most have one car, but also use public transportation / bike when possible.
