Oh, the humanity

Check out this article about chauffeurs driving kids to preschool in New York. Fun quote:

"In exasperation, the director of the school, Nancy Schulman, drafted a letter to all families insisting that the drivers wait somewhere else while parents or baby sitters take the children in: find a legal parking space, or take their cars for a few spins around the block.

"In the letter, which parents received once in the spring of 2006 and twice this school year, Ms. Schulman played perhaps the only bargaining chip she has, stating that failure to observe this rule could hinder their children’s chances of getting into the kindergarten of their choice."

I guess the chauffeur's will need someone to drive the car around the block while they wait for little Master or Mistress. :)
