This is the state of parenthood today: overbooked children and overworked parents scrambling to get places.
Driven mad by the child-chauffeuring dilemma, parents are naturally looking to outsource the job to ride-hailing services. Unfortunately, the biggest companies, Uber and Lyft, forbid drivers from picking up any unaccompanied riders under 18. WSJ
Whether you're a toff or goober
your kids cannot ride with Uber
if they are alone -- no ride
is provided them curbside.
Send them off on skateboard, dude.
Or a pogo stick (though rude.)
Bicycles are good for heart.
What about their own go kart?
Strap 'em on to one big drone.
(Just make sure you've got a clone.)
Hiking in the good fresh air
helps keep children's dermis fair.
There are options by the ton --
shoot 'em out of Bofors gun!
Best of all, just keep them home.
Why go bankrupt while they roam?
With the internet today,
hermit kids are here to stay.
