If these people truly wanted the best for their children, they’d be saving and scrimping and teaching the children to make the most of what they do have, and spending time with the kids teaching them skills, building character, and setting a responsible example

Maybe they could even pull out the stops and let the little darlings waddle a hundred feet to the school bus stop. Every weekday at 3:00, we see caravans of SUV's lined up at the entrances to the various "Pretentia Shores Executive Estates", waiting to take them down the long driveway.

I would bet it is more a safety issue than anything else. However, with my kids I would just have my wife take them and pick them up from school if that was the issue.

I suspect that’s more for safety reasons than to spoil the kids. You can never be too safe when it comes to kids walking to/from their school bus stops.

Last week, one of my neighbors arrived home with her 2 grade schoolers in the car. She stopped at the mailbox while her 9-year-old got out to get the mail and then waited for him to get back in before driving up the driveway. The driveway is about 35 feet long!
