[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow some of you PPs are total jerks. These are activities your kid is involved in and you just can’t be bothered because you have more important things to do? It’s sad that your kids will see how unimportant they are to you when you are late or they show up unprepared etc. Guess what, we are all busy and somehow get our kids together for their activities.

Are you even a parent? There are a million things to do every day to take care of our kids. Just because they are unprepared for something EXTRA doesn't mean they have bad parents or parents who think they are unimportant. Plus, PP and others -- some kids are involved in more than one activity and maybe yours is not the most important one of many.[/quote]

DP here. I'm a pretty involved parent. I remember last year my kid started strings. I put the concert in my calendar. The day before my DS says he has to wear a black shirt. I go out of my way to go buy him a black polo shirt at the mall. Then the day of, he says it is a white shirt or he doesn't know. I emailed the strings teacher. I'm sure she thinks I can't read because I realized there was a very clear letter that stated that the evening concert for families was a white shirt and the during school concert was a black t shirt that everyone in the orchestra was given. I went back to the email and the email was soooooo long. Keep the emails short, people.[/quote]

Exactly. And does that mean you treat your kids as if they're not important? No.[/quote]
