Or they use public transport: Kid me in Germany had a daily 30 minute public bus commute from primary school to day care, and about a similar commute back from there to home. Secondary school was a 30 minute subway commute to it, and back from it, 5 times a week. Not much has changed about that in the decades since; To this day one of the most crowded times in German public transport is right after school ends at 1 PM.
