>> you have no excuse to hide online and complain.EleanorRigby: Irony.

I do wonder what the real purpose of going to the news was especially since the real reason the thread was started was omitted from the news interview

I read this thread and the multiple threads on FB. This whole story smacks of entitlement and public shaming. People love to complain and love to have a target of said complaints. Then other people pile on and off you go! The bottom line: who cares if she rides a bike to the school? If this woman's actions actually bother you, maybe talk to her directly. Now you know her name, you have no excuse to hide online and complain.

but as far as the rest I really don't get the feeling she cares what others feel....

>> Great job Bike mom!! all everyone does is point fingers and judge people. Well before you start doing that you should take a look at yourself and your own lives. shame on you. You are just jealous that she thought of it first and now you are hating on her. She is taking care of her family the best way she can. She is simply trying to get her boys to school on time and I commend her for that. And one son is Autistic. I can relate because I have a son who is Autistic and has always had to go to different schools with the best programs to help him. if taking them on bike to get them there on time on what she needs to do then leave her alone!!! What she does is none of your business and SHAME ON YOU if you are taking a picture while driving and or are in the school zone. you should get a ticket for that.  Stay out of this woman's business and everyone else's business and take care of yourself and your family. tracey53: You so missed the point. It is great she bikes her kids to school, I even gave her credit for the. It is the things she has been doing biking her kids to school that caused the post to begin with. Maybe you would like to be out walking on the Greenbelt with your dog and this person hauling *** on a bike with a trailer (that that up the width of the trail) comes around a corner behind you, you do not hear them until they are almost on top of you. Then you have to scramble into the grass dragging the dog so you don't get hit...

This is why bikes should be on the roads, and why it is illegal in most places on sidewalks

Taking a photo to publicly shame them is being a coward, imo. Especially if you see this person every day and could easily engage them in an adult conversation. But why do that when you can come online to get virtual high-fives on your opinion? Cyber validation is waaaay more important than actual dialogue in person. EleanorRigby: I’m just playing around, trust me, you are preaching to the choir. I’m with you.
