That is soooo rude!! I'm a mum and I'd never ever park across someone's driveway, that's just c**p.

Happens to my sis-in-law often. They live across from a school and inconsiderate parents park across her driveway all the damn time. The worst part is the town has many schools and almost every house in their respective district is an easy walk for the kids. There is really no need to ferry your spawn to their school. I know because I walked it my entire schooling. Stop being a helicopter parent and let your kids walk their a*s to school.

I had a bf who parked across our drive. The car was black and it was night. When my sister backed out to go to work---Bam! Good thing she had insurance.

You could try getting a set of no parking cones off Amazon or somewhere else and line them up in front of your drive if they don't cause traffic issues, then just move them out of the way when you need to go through. Most drivers wouldn't be bothered to get out to move them.

Maybe a letter to the school would help. They might address it in their news letter.

But it’s NOT petty. You’re not being petty at all! People are selfish and rude. It isn’t unreasonable for you to hope people would be more thoughtful than that, and then to feel disappointed or pissed when they’re not. I’ve always felt that the goal, or purpose, of existence is to be constantly evolving. To go deeper and be better. Instead, the focus is on what everything looks like on the surface, how much of it do we have, and how convenient is it to reach. Yeah I think, no, I FEEL, that we are (humanity) is heading in the wrong direction. We are screwing this up.

Buy an old landrover at a wrecking yard and just smash it out of the way. Go back and pick up your normal car and leave.

If you can maneuver you car out of the parking spot, deflate the tires. Soon word will spread between the parents and you'll be left alone
