No I'm not talking about the buses/people carriers to carry precious tarquin in; I mean crossing the road by the school

loads of mothers drag their kids across the road sometimes as close as 10 yards from a zebra crossing and then they barely look, I had to shout at 2 this morning. I've never seen blokes taking their kids over the road on a short cut. I'm not saying it's just the moms, but the dads I've seen always use the crossing and make the kids look left and right rather than just dragging them across the road.

It's just teaching 5-7 year olds a really bad way to cross dangerous roads and I really don't want to contemplate the possibility of running over a child due to a parents negligence

Anyone else have to navigate these?
