[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like you have a baby but are worried a lot about how it will be during the school-age years. I think you should focus on your current situation and not hypothetical school plays in the future. Also, 10 doctor’s appointments in a year is a lot and doesn’t make sense outside of the baby years (even then it sounds too high). Plus there are things like pediatric urgent care with hours that don’t interfere with an average work day. I have 3 kids and there are rarely school events during the day (and many parents don’t go to them because they work). When your child is older, you can choose whether to have them do activities or not, and what kind based on your schedule. This just sounds like you’re finding something to worry about. [/quote] Also please tell me what school your kids are in (seriously) my kindergartner had 6 10AM performances this year plus 2 day time parent teacher meetings. Half of that was grade specific so when I have one in 2nd and one in K - it’ll be 12 daytime events if I get to them all [/quote] NP, but my 1st grader had zero in person day time events this year during the work week. There was a talent show on a friday night and a saturday art fair. Parent teacher conferences were via zoom and I skipped the book fair and field day because it didn't seem like he cared. Last year in K, he had one additional even, K graduation. [/quote]
