Tomorrow is the first day of August, meaning school season is just around the corner. Although it’s ALREADY STARTING if your kids are in various sports and activities.

 

A new survey of Millennial parents found that just driving their kids to and from their school activities takes up an average of 38 minutes . . . every day.

 

Over a full school year, that adds up to 6,858 minutes, which is nearly 15 eight-hour workdays.  All spent behind the wheel . . . worrying that they left something at home . . . while listening to Imagine Dragons.

 

And 77% of parents say the back-to-school season makes life feel more hectic.

 

Kids:  If you’re listening to this, don’t take it for granted that your parents make themselves available to drive you to every single activity for school.  And keep in mind:  Tomorrow is also Respect for Parents Day.
