[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who organized all these events to begin with? Start there.[/quote]

There are a million threads on General Parenting complaining about the schools organizing all of this stuff.  Not only do you need to do all of this, but there are 14 different apps and emails where this information is located.  [/quote]

It's mostly women creating work for other women. If the men ran the schools there would be none of this at all. No Amazon wish lists for class parties, no wearing special socks on special sock day, no coordinated outfits, no twinning day, and all the other nonsense that the mental load carriers like to complain about.[/quote]

I always wonder if private schools don't do all this extra stuff. [/quote]

Mine does. But they always seem to have a ton of volunteers so if it's not your thing you just send in the easiest low effort things for parties (plates, napkins). And my kids are a bit older so if they forget the special socks or other spirit day item then it's too bad for them. Not the same for a kindergartener or 1st grader who wouldn't be able to manage. That's just one way to offload is to just put it back on the kids to remember if it's important to them.[/quote]
