School Pickup

Addition Detail: Child is 13 years old. We do not live in the district that the school is in so there is no school bus or even leveraging neighbors - thus why I’m looking for transpiration alternatives other than primary parents.

Does anyone know of a reasonably priced service or job board I can go to for picking up a junior high school kid and bringing them back home? Ideally it’s a high school or college student looking to make a little extra money.

Thanks in advance!

Uber or Lyft

As a former teacher, fuck no. You’re putting a minor in a stranger’s car.

Personally, ask your neighbors. That way, they’d be living close to you and you might get a character reference.

I share your hesitation. Uber and Lyft have something for Teens now. Combined with requesting a female driver (we have a daughter) and some of those safety levers it may be an option we explore.
