[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Be aware that the parenting playing field evens out a lot more in middle school, [b]because the "mean moms" who had a choke hold over classroom volunteering opportunities[/b] and being an constant presence school no longer have that power because parents do not volunteer in the classroom in middle school. The only volunteer opportunities are the occasional field trip, and MS students DO NOT want their un-cool parents there (how embarrassing). So, it gets better.[/quote] OMG drama much?!?! I'm so sure the AWFUL TERRIBLE "Mean Moms" at your school are guarding all the volunteer opportunities for themselves and not "allowing" anyone to help...for....the GLORY of it?!?! LOLOLOL! Are you serious!?! The same people who make ridiculous statements like this are the exact same moms who roll their eyes at any mom who has the AUDACITY to request that you send in a contribution for teacher appreciation week, a class party, etc. because "who has the time for that??!" Right? Make up your mind, PP--and moms just like you! Do you want us to ask you to help, or not?!?! It's not a secret club, you know! You just sign up and DO it. And in the absence of volunteers, guess what?!?!....the SAME DAMN MOMS end up doing everything that needs to be done! Not out of some bizarre POWER trip (which gains us what, exactly?!? Access to the crotchety teachers who populate the Teacher's Lounge?!?! No thanks!) Please...take a step back and realize that you have the same access and power to volunteer as every other parent at that school. The "chokehold" is imaginary.[/quote] Guess what - If you didn't lift a finger again for your child's class... Everything would still be fine. So take a moment and stop judging and being resentful toward all the other parents who don't volunteer as much as you do. [/quote]
