My daugher suffers anxiety and needs a lot of encouragement, School for her next year so new challenges await. I wont be in the “drop off line” I’ll be parking and walking to spend time with her

Yep
I also think that the parents of older kids should park further away. Your kid can walk himself out of school and to the car, you don’t even have to get out the car!
But for the preprimary and younger kids, we need to get there earlier than the bell, pick em up and walk them to the car…. for little legs after a big day it would be nice to get a closer spot

Yes! My sister is so guilty of this and her kids are so slow! My son isn’t at school yet but my plan is to park in the stress free area a block or two away and walk him up.

Haha so true. Drop your kids and go!

Probably you have these parents who misuse the pick-up/drop-off zone everywhere.

My kids either rode their bikes to school or caught the bus. So much less hassle that way.

Haha. We didn’t have a drop off /pick up line

Lol some people have a great sense of humor

Definitely a large part of it is tongue in cheek.
However I know of one school which does not allow year reception or one to leave the classroom at the end of the day unless a parent or other authorised adult to collect the child.

Yep. The kiss and ride zone at our school always has one or two people fiddling or chattering away instead of moving along like they should. We live a short walk from school and half an hour after the bells gone you can still hear them calling up kids for pick up in the afternoon for this reason. Get in and get out people. Hahaha
