Hello @kemmyb. Yes, every parent has faced can identify with at least some of issues related to unreliable transportation during some point in their lives. A solid plan of foresight is often required to alleviate the stress.
The ratio of fathers who take responsibility for children is not the same as mothers. It takes them stepping into the alternate role to see the challenges women face every day without complaint. You do what you have to do with what you have to work with. It's not easy when you have have responsibility by yourself.
I appreciate your kind words for my story and am pleased you found it of interest.
Take care.
