[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well it seems you simply can't manage the logistics. Not all parents can, nothing to be ashamed of.[/quote] But how do working parents do it? That’s not a rhetorical question. I barely make it to pick up my youngest kids at 4:25 when they get out. These away games start at 4! And now they are saying practice ends at 4:30 and pickup needs to be prompt? At 4:30 I’m barely out of the elementary school parking lot loop![/quote] My kids did not do any middle school sports or clubs. It was too difficult to manage with transportation. We had a late bus option but it also didn’t line up and wouldn’t work. They continued with other sports options that met later in the evening, where we could actually make it work. [/quote] Sounds like your child can't do MS sports OP. Its not an entitlement. Where I live (Loudoun) the schools have more reasonable start times and the ES kids go first, then middle, then high school. Also there are no "middle school sports" - its all rec and club at this point (with practices starting around 5:30/6pm) and school sports start in HS. [/quote]
