[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ugh I had a work from home day where my kid talked during the quick second where I was un muted. Of course you are not allowed to have kids at home when working. I was also the only mother who didn’t show up at the Mother’s day celebration at school (I didn’t realize it was an elaborate thing) so I didn’t take off. My husband told me about how nice it was like 4 times.[/quote] Nope, you weren’t the only one because I wasn’t there either. I did make it there for the early Father’s Day celebration in April though, filling in for DH who couldn’t make it. I definitely wasn’t the only mom there that day, but I bet very few of the dad’s who missed it are still beating themselves up about it like we are. [/quote] NP. It may have occurred to me as a single mom to show up to my Kindergartener's Father's Day classroom event, and be there for her, IF the room parent hadn't tactfully kept me off the destribution email for that particular event. Weeks earlier I was tbere for her mother's day event and cried a tiny bit, but this was her turn to cry, all alone surrounded by classmates and their daddies. She missed her deadbeat gone dad SO MUCH that day and the week after. He isn't beating himself for anything.[/quote]
