London - Getting the children up and ready for school can be a battle.
But the conflict doesn’t end there, as parents are more than ready to squabble with other mothers and fathers once they reach the school gates, a survey has shown.
The study of more than 3 000 motorists found that 16 percent of parents admit to arguing with other adults on the school run, while almost a quarter confess to blocking other people’s cars.
Dropping the kids off can be so stressful that 43 percent of parents even worry about it the night before.
However some of the stress is self-inflicted, as the poll by second-hand car website Auto Trader found that half of school run drivers admit to envying other families’ vehicles.
Twenty-nine percent also said they risk parking illegally just so they can get closer to the school. - Daily Mail
