stupid question about hours

[coltsgrl]

I'm sure all have noticed, but does anyone else think it's crazy that hospital shifts all start within a half hour of when schools start? ie~6:30 or 7 am

My kids are too old for day care (10 & 13), and too young to trust to get up and to the bus stop.....

What are others doing in this situation?

When i was in school and had to leave for clinicals at 5:30 my 8 & 10 year olds got themselves up and off to school by themselves. You will be surprised at how much they can do when they need to.
