[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PTA mom here who also works. At our pta it’s mostly the working parents who put the most time in. I know each school varies. So please don’t make this a sahm/wohm issue. You can just do the card and send a box of store bought muffins with your kid the day before and ask them to drop it in the office. Done. Don’t do anything and don’t worry about it like most parents. 75% of our school doesn’t do a damn thing for pta and if each family contributed just one hour a week to the school, it would make it a hell of a lot easier on those 15 parents who literally do everything because no one else is volunteering. If you’re that upset about it, go to PTA meetings, offer ideas, offer to run just one event or at least spend one hour a year at the book fair or whatever your school has. Maybe it’ll give you an appreciation of the parents who do so much on their own time. [/quote] Our PTA is not welcoming nor is our school. I'm happy to help but got turned off after being told no, we don't need help, etc. each year. Show up to volunteer at things like the book fair when they do request it and they say they are fine and no help needed. Why ask and waste my time coming in?[/quote]
