Nowadays it’s a common practice for parents to drive their children to and from school. This causes a heated debate in the society. A survey on it has just been conducted on this debate. The results are as follows.
Of the people who support driving to school, about half believe that driving children to school saves time, so the children can get up later. Another 30% think it comfortable to go by car, especially in bad weather. About 15% consider it reasonable just for the sake of children’s safety. Still others think it is a great time for parents to communicate with their children.
However, other people are against driving children to school. About 55% of them believe that it results in heavier traffic, especially around school areas. Around 30% think that driving kids to and from school will add to pressure on parents. It takes time, expense and effort to do this. Still again, 15% worry that children may become more dependent on their parents in the long term.
I think going to school by car is a better solution for young children. However, for older children it is unnecessary.
