    With the construction on the 174 for the next three months you may have to be a bit more lenient but not to the point of parents taking advantage. Two of mine are now dropping off 15 minutes earlier and picking up about 10 minutes later than they were based on how the first couple days this week went although they said it was actually getting better as people seem to be switching to the bus. It isn't a problem for me because they aren't my earliest arrivals or latest pickup so not a problem if they are still here.

    How long has it been that they were having the driving issues as in is it related to where they drive to or just because?

    For the mom it is the construction, for the dad, he has been like this from the beginning. She asked if she coudl drop 15 min early because of the construction, but for me that means opening early..and I really need that time in the morning. I considered it, but I had already said no to a family a couple of months ago...so if I reopen this then everyone will want to start coming at 7:15. I just don't want to go down that road.
