The Musings Of An Opinionated Sod [Help Me Grow!]

Don’t get me wrong, I have no problem with them collecting their child – even in their cars, we do it too – but it’s the attitude they can leave their car wherever they like regardless of it blocking traffic or being placed in a no parking zone.

The level of entitlement of some parents picking up their kids is 70’s Rockstar standard.

Which is why I loved this passive aggressive sign at a school near where we live …

Love it.

Especially the ‘love them and leave them’ message underneath, because for me, it’s really saying this:

By all means drive your kid to school.

By all means give your kid a kiss and hug as they come/go.

But don’t get out the car … don’t dress your kid at the school gates … don’t hang around and talk to other parents

Come in. Kiss them hello/goodbye. Leave.

And while that may sound a bit harsh, it’s simply reminding parents that while your child means the World to you, the World doesn’t revolve around them.
