Car-free Families
Here is a link to an article on being a car-free family: http://streetsblog.net/2011/08/03/the-road-less-taken-car-free-family-life/
Although my family is no car-free, we are what we consider car-light. We have only one car and it sits idle most of the time. My kids often head to their bikes when we are going somewhere, and when we tell them we have to drive the car to get there we get an "Aww, why do we have to drive the car?" from them. I'm a bit proud of that.
