I live in Krakow and use car everyday*. There is virtually no possibility I will get my kids to school in the morning using public communication, mainly because the school is 4 kilometres away. City is so pro-clean-air and eliminate-parking-spaces and remove-cheap ekhm I mean polluting,-cars but meanwhile does nothing except for selling more and more ground for building flats. Not schools not hospitals not child daycare centres, but flats...

* Always going to work by bicycle if possible, but if I have violin lesson or doctor's appointment I am not able to because the distances would be too long

You can try an electric bike for those longer distances. It’s really fun to ride if you find a good one.

Especially in the rain, with a kid on a bolted-on backseat behind you and while sharing the road with cars that don't want you to be there.

Just throw in an electric motor and will suddenly become fun.

Kids are too big for bolted on seat sadly...

The good news is soon they'll be able to pedal themselves.

Krakow is a great city. Did you try an electric bike? They make 8 km seem like nothing.
