The Problem<\/h3>\n\n\n\nThis isn\u2019t just the experience of a few parents\u2013it\u2019s a story we\u2019ve heard over and over. When you have more than one child, there simply isn\u2019t enough time to get everyone where they need to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In fact, over\u00a030 million kids in the US are in organized sports. That\u2019s about three out of five\u00a0school-aged children in the US.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On top of this, nearly half of all students are driven to school by parents<\/strong>. Why? Over 50% of schools in the US don\u2019t have buses. Many parents have no choice or find the bus timings don\u2019t work with their schedules\u2013so they drive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We did some of the math and figured out that a family with 3 children takes an average of 90 monthly trips, adding up to over 30 hours of driving time each month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That\u2019s pretty crazy, but if you\u2019re in that situation you know how believable it is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
