Yes, two. One in primary school, whom I drop off before taking the bus to work in the morning and take home on the way back, and one in day care, with whom my partner does the same. We rent or borrow a car for holidays.

It is true that a car is often very useful when you have children. But then, a family can have a small city car instead of two SUVs.

I am not against the concept of cars, I actually love driving a good one. But I despair when I see the growing popularity of SUVs, and sedans getting larger and larger.
