I find this discussion amusing. We obviously have so much worry in our lives that we have to get het up over getting on a bus.

In my own position as a parent of two and a bus user I have a simple rule, if I can get on a bus with my kids and a buggy without inconveniencing anyone I will do so. If I need to fold the buggy to get on board then I do. If I cant get on the bus then I wait for the next one.

I dont HAVE to get on the first bus. I dont HAVE to goet angry because it is full. There are far more important things in life to worry about. If it's raining I have an umbrella and the kids are in raincoats and the buggy has it's hood up. It's only rain for goodness sake.

No wonder the world is turning into a ME, ME, ME society. There are afterall people who are far less fortunate and less able than a dad and his two kids. Wait in the rain with two kids or sit in a wheelchair in the rain because someone with a buggy is in the disabled space, I know what I would choose.

Smile folks, just imaging living in Africa in the middle of no-where and having to walk 5 miles for water, we dont have it difficult do we??
