Going down seems more dangerous. Especially if it’s still dark.

This will help them when they become adults and can post intelligently on internet message boards

That’s might nice of them.

My kids bitch about having to climb onto the side step on my pickup to get in before being driven to school.

After pictures surfaced of the challenging trek faced by schoolchildren in a poor corner of China's mountainous west, their village may be getting some assistance by way of a safer, more modern piece of infrastructure: a solid set of steel stairs.


That's what attention gets them? How about a solar powered elevator, or a school at the top of the mountain?
