In early December, a woman from Guangxi, southern China, shared online that she found winter mornings too cold to get out of bed, so she hired a delivery rider to take her child to school at 6:30am.
“What a clever idea! Taking kids and delivering packages is basically the same thing as long as they arrive safely,” said one online supporter of her actions.
The Post has found that other parents are embracing this “hassle-free” approach to the school run.
A woman surnamed Zheng from Henan province in central China shared online that her overnight work leaves her too tired to take her child to school, so she often hires delivery riders instead.

“The rider has a great attitude, safely delivers my child to school, and sends me videos as proof,” she said.
