Anything at all...
When I pour hot water over a tea bag and the end flips up and into the cup.
Parents who arrive at school for the pickup 45-60 minutes early just to get the choice parking spots right at the entrance.
Along with the last annoyance, suburbanite hippies dressed in Peruvian dresses who drive 150k Landcruisers with activism window decals to pick their kids up from school.

That's me. Hahahaha. My son makes me wait 45 min to be the first one in line begore the bell rings so that HE doesn't have to wait 15 min it takes me to get through the long car line to get to him. Lol.
I used to just drop mine off on the side street and then just watch them go in.
They did sports and other activities so pick up wasnt an issue.
In elementary they took the bus.
I refuse to let my son ride the bus. I worry so much about bullying. Although, he does go to a really good school and I ask him often if anyone picks on him or is mean to him and he says no. He may be 6 years old but he is my baby. I think I'm super protective over him because he has Autism/adhd. He is naive to the other kids thought process so I'm like a damn lioness over her cub when it comes to him. Hahahaha. I do let him assert his independence and I try to accommodate him in any way I can with his learning disabilities.
Totally understandable because that does happen.
My kids have never had issues on the bus ever, they had no choice for many years because my work schedules and I was a single mom through most of their elementary schooling.
My middle daughter(15 right now) had issues in a class room. Pervert boys that were straight up harassing her. Saying the most vulgar shit imaginable. It really started giving her serious anxiety and her grades were dropping. It was awful. I was in that school so many times before I just pulled her.
The school did absolutely fucking NOTHING. They just kept "talking to them". I was about to involve police. I really should have.
I pulled her and she finished out the year online....but still was able to participate in cheer. We moved after that year(not because of that).
I was nervous about the bus, but the bus was perfect.
I think keeping your kid off the bus at that age with autism/adhd is a VERY good choice. I'd also be terrified he would get off at the wrong stop and the driver would just let him.
6 years old is most certainly still a baby ♡
