This is funny as shit. These are parents were raised as special "snowflakes". God help us all. [/quote]  Honestly, I have about 5 school years between my two kids. I have noticed a shift from parents of kids the same age as my #1, to parents of kids same age as my #2.  Kids the same age as my #2 come off far more high maintenance and seem to fail to see that some decisions are designed to meet the public good, not their individual work schedules.  It's not completely universal, of course, but I have noticed a shift.[/quote]

Some of the attitudes here really puzzle me.

I went to the same elementary school as my mother and grandmother. That school's start time didn't change in 60 years (and likely didn't change after I left).

Meanwhile, my 6th grader has seen three changes since he started seven years ago.

My guess is that if the elementary school  you went to hasn't changed or gotten bigger in 60 years, the area around it has.   FCPS is huge compared to what it was even a generation ago.  The area is growing like crazy.  I sympathize, but I think people here will have to get used to change at least for the next decade or so.

I don't think it's snowflake-like to be annoyed by your early-morning schedule changing every few years. Does your start time at work change, too?[/quote][/quote]
