[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a working parent who works 12s and has 2/3 days off midweek. My spouse works 4-midnight. I’m solo parenting every evening and usually driving my kid to some activity, doing dinner, bedtime whatever. I can’t do 7-8pm meetings. I paid to be on our PTO but can’t attend the meetings. I go in and help with stuff at the school though on my days off. Everyone has different time constraints and different gifts to offer. If the majority of people on the pta are sahm they’re going to choose times that work for them. They’re volunteers, I don’t begrudge them.[/quote] If the PTA has meetings during the day because SAHM can’t figure out what to do with their kids once a month from 6-7, I am not donating or helping with fundraising. People steal money from PTAs all the time, and holding meetings when the people most likely to notice irregularities cannot come is very bad for accountability. [/quote]
