daniels middle school parents

(Oberlin Road near Glenwood)  What is wrong with the parents who drop their kids off in the morning!!!!  If I was a policeman I would give every one of those i-d-i-o-t parents dropping their kids off on the side of the road a ticket.  I have watched this happen day after day.  This morning, some ignorant woman dropped her kid off on the side of the road JUST BEFORE THE TURN to the authorized drop off lane.  Many a morning, when it wasn't even busy, these selfish parents drop their kids in a danger zone.  These children are exposed to moderate to heavy traffic on a two-lane road and have to, 9 times out of 10, cross the road to get to the school.  Not everyone goes 25 in that area. 

Stop putting your kids in danger and drop them off in the schools authorized drop off area!  You are no more special than anyone else.  Follow the rules or your kids will end up paying the price for your stupidity.

Are they stopping in the turn lane or just on the side of the road as they're heading toward Oberlin? Of course, they should pull in and drop their kids off in the school's desingated areas; however, the speed limit in a school zone is already 25 A few people stopping to dump their kids off shouldn't mess with traffic anymore than the already turtle pace people must travel.

My parents would have had me ride the bus or walk anyway.

I sympathize with you had a situation this morning. Call it the "ME FIRST" syndrome pulling up to drop my daughter off little mini van comes flying around me to get just in front of me blocking me in. Now we're not late she had to have been going 40 thru the circle skids to a stop, peels off. I follow her as I'm headed back and she pulls into MacDonalds drive thru guess she had to have that Egg McMuffin

Do they have car monitors? Sounds like they need some.

Sandra & abbync - It's a two-lane road. Not a drop-off point for the kids. I have even seen parents stop right in the road to drop their kids off.

Those kids are anywhere between twelve and fourteen. They are old enough, in my opinion, to cross a road on their own and look out for their own safety.

Many of those children walk to and from school. What's the difference in dropping them off in front of the school or letting them walk several blocks and crossing side streets (including the mildly crazy Fairview/Oberlin intersection)?

Some parents are just too much in a hurry. They should take the time to make their children are safe. If they're running late, just leave home earlier.

ambergail1 - it's true, I see them do it every day. Sometimes I just want to get out of my car and......

Name calling works wonders - especially when the name fits!

oh my gosh. i cant believe a parent would do that to their child. but then again, i cant believe paretnts do a lot of things....
