You might have a point. Mu frustration with the comment I was replying to was that it seems to be mostly about owning cars for owning cars sake (as if being able to park 3 cars was an actually desirable or reasonable thing to do) and promoting car ownership as the only possibility when kids turn 5 for reasons unknown.

Some of the most livable cities in the world have good public transport and low rates of car ownership (a fact that seems more and more correlated to said livability) and are good places to raise families.
