[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When the team says prior to registration that volunteering is mandatory to make swim team work, they don’t mean everyone but YOU.

You suck and I judge you. Don’t give excuses, no one forced you to register your kid.

That’s all.[/quote]

This is why my kids don’t swim. Congrats on your superiority.[/quote]

Because you refuse to volunteer for your kid's sport?  Yeah, the PP probably is superior to you.[/quote]

I volunteer for tons of sports, spouse coaches, lead things at school, etc. The lady who runs my pool’s swim team doesn’t volunteer at soccer, and I don’t judge her like OP is judging in his/her post. That’s what I’m referring to. When people aren’t super involved in one thing or another, instead of being a judgmental turd about it, I assume they’re doing the best they can, when they can. Some years you can run the school PTA, some years you have a newborn at home or a dying parent or a big trial at work. Part of being in a community is having grace with other human beings.

And for swim in particular, the organizers ask for far too many volunteers. Sorry, I’m not getting a babysitter so I can be one of three timers per lane for 8 year olds swimming in a B meet. It is just silly.[/quote]

My thoughts exactly. I’ve been a room parent more times than I can count. We all pay in somehow. [/quote]
