Never mind the bus stop, it's still insane in front of the school building!
When my son started school, we were living in the UK, and there was no such thing as the "drop-off line" of cars in front of the school. You either walked or your parked somewhere (not nearby, usually in a field or a side street, as the school did not supply any parking!) and walked your young child to the school gates. By about year 3, your kid would die of embarrassment if you walked them to the school gates, so they went alone.
Now we're in the US and sitting in the line of cars idling outside the school every morning feels utterly bizarre. And yet here I am, doing it, because I haven't figured out what else I should do when I need to be at work 15 minutes after he has to be at school. Start times are changing next year, though, so he may get to "be a bike kid" after all.
