Please try to get it right. Bring vs. Take

In American English, "bring" is used to denote movement toward the place of speaking or the point from which the action is regarded.  eg. Bring it to me now' or, he brought his children a present from his travels.  "Take" denotes movement away from the place of speaking; therefore, for example, one takes checks to the bank and brings home cash. From the banker's point of view, one has brought him checks in order to take away cash. A Horrible example of an error I  heard lately:  A mother standing on her front porch says to a friend, "I can't go with you at 8 o'clock tomorrow because I  have to bring my children to school."   Wrong, wrong, wrong.  She has to TAKE  her children to school.
