Okay, judgmental 20- and 30-somethings, 40-year-old here with 2 kids. My wife and I both work full time; doing so allows us to do things like go on vacations with our kids, live in an expensive city, and pay tuition. If our kids are going to have afternoon activities even occasionally during the week, we have two choices - shift to part-time employment, or arrange for transportation. I find it ironic, given the number of 'live your dream' and 'go for it' startup posts on HN (oh, the humanity!), that the assumption is that working parents should just pack it in to provide high-quality transportation for our youngsters. It smacks of hypocrisy. And, for what it's worth, kids who live in the city can't exactly go play in the creek and ride their bikes. I wish they could, but they can't. It's not 20 or 30 years ago.
