Parenting tips

So when you nag and nag and nag your kids for 15 minutes to get going or they are going to miss the bus, and then you get a phone call telling you that they missed the bus, and you have to hurry and throw some clothes on the 2 year old and call a taxi and take them to school yourself because they took 10 minutes to ride their bikes 2 blocks . . . make them pay for the taxi. Works every time.

But really it only works in China, where a 6 year old can easily afford to pay for a taxi out of their allowance.

You're welcome.
