[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, you have SO much more time and energy than I do.  I do actually think it's weird, but mostly because WOW you really have the time and energy to DO that? What about all the preschool volunteering? And just getting dinner on the table? And keeping the house from imploding? And picking up the dry cleaning after 2 weeks?

I mean, really, you have time for that?[/quote]

I volunteer for other events like homeless shelters, cancer fundraisers, children in need and disabilities, etc. I thought it would be nice to help out at my child's future school. I have always been active in school and the community. It got me into ivy league schools and gave me interesting topics to talk about during job interviews.

I used to have a demanding work around the clock job before having children. Now I work part time and my children attend preschool. Attending a PTA meeting here and there is not a large block of time.

From the overwhelming negative responses, I will not participate.[/quote]
