[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this thread was confused by this early reply, which I at least attributed to the op:

"A preschool mom asked me the other day if I would be on the preschool board next year. “Perfect position for a stay at home mom”. F&3k you. No. I have zero help. My husband travels constantly. I have 3 kids under 8 including one with special needs. No no no."

It's one thing to acknowledge that there's a lot of inequity at the motherhood starting line, as the op did. I agree with that. But it's another to be appalled at the suggestion that a SAHM would find a preschool board position perfect, bc this particular SAHM is struggling. [/quote]

I think the point of the preschool board thing is more that no one really wants to and the person tasked with recruiting members will find a way to tailor the pitch to every member. OP is mad that they used the SAHM thing but I can guarantee they did not only ask SAHMs or look around for the parents who seemed to have the most extra time. OP probably accidentally appeared sane and competent to one of the board members and was reliable about her co-op job or something and so they put her on the list. [/quote]
