[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel that way. Also with a first grader. Thank you for writing this. I suspect for me, if I was more involved with classroom it would have been different. Our teacher is a bit more formal in person than on a zoom. That might be an aspect of it as well. They are in a professional role and may need to be “on” a bit more when we are face to face to maintain the proper boundary. [/quote]

OP here. Glad I'm not alone. I wouldn't be so sure about the classroom involvement piece. I'd actually say I'm one of the more involved parents in the class and I don't think it helps that much. It just puts me in the situation of needing to talk to the teachers about something more frequently, and you'd think that increased exposure would make it feel less awkward, but it doesn't. I'm actually thinking next year I will not volunteer for stuff as much because I find myself really envying the parents who have very minimal interactions with the teachers. I think I'd like that to be me. [/quote]
