[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]why does it seem so hard to get anyone to volunteer to help these days? is it a generational parent thing that parents w younger kids just assume someone else will do it? it takes a village but it doesn’t seem to compute as the older parents look to pass the torch [/quote] Its way more expensive to live most places now, more families are dual income working parents with demanding full time jobs, fewer hobby jobs etc that allows volunteering [/quote] This has been the norm in the DC area for 30 to 40 years now, so this is not a new thing. Maybe in middle America this is new. People make excuses. Parents have no problem being on their phones for hours at a time. Younger parents are really poor time managers. [/quote]
