I have a very long driveway and during inclement weather, I have to drive to the end to pick up my 5-year-old from the bus. Actually, I do it all the time now because we have a coyote that likes to hang out in my driveway between 3 and 5pm.
My senior citizen babysitter asked about picking him up from the bus in case of emergency. She can't walk that distance, with the hills, etc. I thought the answer was easy -- I keep a Vivo in my husband's pickup, which she has access to anytime. Then she asked what if she also has my 2-year-old. Eeep!
It will likely NEVER happen, but I should have a plan just in case. Would you be comfortable having the 2-year-old ride in the Vivo (he meets the minimums), and getting a backless for my 5-year-old? Right now, I can turn the car around without leaving the driveway. But once there's snow on the ground, she'll have to leave the driveway to turn around. Does that change your answer?
