[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having kids can be a major inconvenience. They are time and money sucks. They can wreak havoc on a job, especially when they get sick or their school closes for whatever reason. But I chose to have these kids and undertake the inconveniences that go along with them. Sometimes it can really suck, but why is a good faith call, made in reasonable reliance on a region-wide weather advisory alert, the cause of so much complaining? This is part of having a kid.

No need to be an imperious jerk.

Kids are not wreaking havoc on jobs, the ongoing pandemic and lack of safety net wreaks havoc on our jobs. It's harder to find back-up care, and many parents (a disproportionate number of women) have burned through their leave.

I disagree that this was a good faith call so I'm going to complain about it and try to prevent it from happening again. I'm also going to advocate for my kid to have a better education. They deserve better than this. [/quote]

What exactly are you going to do to prevent it from happening again? Do you have access to better meteorological forecasts that you’re willing to share with APS? Are you going to advocate that APS return to calling snow days the morning of, going against all the parents who loudly demanded just the opposite a few years ago? Since you have all the answers, please share them. [/quote]
