After dropping off Kelsey and Kristina, Ms. Link has to double back and pick up Kaleigh and take her to golf. She will wait for Kelsey to finish soccer before picking up Kristina and taking her to cheerleading practice. Another mother will have to retrieve Kristina so that Ms. Link can be home when Kaleigh's math tutor comes. And where does homework and family dinner fit into any of this?

Gone are the days of getting on the bike and heading off to school and sports I guess. (Or for the whole day during the summer!)

Fast food and there is no bedtime anymore. I see the little ones on my street running around after dark. One mom tells me "I can't ever get my daughter up for school". I suggested an actual BEDTIME and this was a new idea for her.

They spend all their time hauling kids back and forth from one social/school/sport function to another, then wonder why they're too wiped out for any time of their own.
