And how very little people brought kids on to the MTR.

The problem with taking the MTR with kids is -- a lot of times the station is HUGE, and you really gotta walk a shxt ton of distance inside the station within the fare-paid zone. And this is esp true with a lot of the newer stations and the hub stations.
Even as an adult, that's a lot of walking. And more often than not, it's a "people mountain people sea" type of situation... It makes for good exercise where you are getting your steps in, but as a method of commute, it adds to your travel time.
