New Trend in China: Couriers Deliver Children to School
A new service is gaining popularity in China: parents are hiring couriers to take their children to school. The reason is simple—adults find it hard to wake up early, and couriers provide a quick and affordable solution.

- Parents place an order through a delivery app, specifying the school address as the destination.
- Couriers arrive at the house, pick up the child, and drop them off at the school gate.

Public Reaction:
This attitude has sparked controversy. Critics argue that parents are shifting their responsibility for children's safety onto strangers.
Safety Concerns
-
Lack of Regulation:
- Couriers typically don't undergo special training to work with children.
- There's no guarantee the child will be safely delivered to school.
-
Government Response:
