[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pretty funny that the organizer of this is keeping her kids home. The irony is that she is always attacking anyone who pulled kids from APS to send to private. She seems to think those parents should stay quiet and not advocate to open APS. Does she have self-awareness. But whatever, I’ll sign her petition so long as it doesn’t delay reopening timeline. These things go nowhere anyway. [/quote]

Not sure why you find this funny. I'm keeping my kid home because his school is putting them all into a cafeteria together. Maybe your kids are in private or in a school with better lunch plans so this is amusing to you. But not to me. [/quote]

It’s funny because the organizer lacks self-awareness. I pulled my kids to private because I need to go to work 5 days a week and can’t leave them home alone. I saw the writing early on and frantically applied and got them into a catholic. It’s not a long term solution for my family and I want my kids back in their neighborhood school. Yet she constantly attacks people like me for not having my kids in public, as if I forfeited all right to advocate to APS. (Btw, I don’t actually post on AEM in part because of nasty mean people like her that attack others. So, yes, it’s funny her logic doesn’t apply to herself. Perfectly okay for her to advocate on lunch even though she is t sending her kids - yea, sure. For the record, I think both parents in both cases should be able to advocate. But HER hypocrisy IS funny, in a sad way. [/quote]

It's not hypocritical. Her kids are still in the system, whereas yours are not. That's a pretty fundamental difference in terms of having skin in the game. So I have no problem at all with her advocating for outdoor lunch, as it may someday benefit her kid(s) at some point and will definitely benefit other kids in the short term. [/quote]

Did you miss where pp said she wanted to move her kids back to public?  She has as much of an interest in school reopening as the petition organizer does.[/quote]
