[quote=Anonymous]We are lucky that school-based clubs mostly happen during the school day (ie lunch; sometimes after school for an hour), MS school sports practices are 3 days per week right after school, and we let our child do one extracurricular on the weekend. We also set up Fridays as defacto hang out times with MS friends. Sometimes they turn into sleepovers or they may turn into later nights so parents get a breather, either because they need to get their second child to another activity and/or they want to go out to dinner by themselves. We only have one child and live near the school, which makes it much easier than how other parents with multiples living far away from activities seem to be. We are therefore happy to be a backstop if other parents need it. Ask around and see if there are any carpool options or any friends living near school or activities. We always are flexible with parents and will gladly feed kids if it gets to be 6:30pm and their parent is running late. It takes a village! [/quote]
