[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Writ large — larger than most answers so far on this thread — I reject that the mom is the default go-to person for anything and everything. Huge to small. Why can’t the other parent oversee the placement of a splint when Bobby breaks a finger on the playground? Or needs crayons, or speech therapy in network or a STEM camp with bus service or that Lego set or more leafy green vegetables? It’s the _everything_ is for [/quote] I’m the same. My husband is just as responsible for our children as I am. My kids have never once come home from school and blamed ME that they missed bringing something in. That was on both of us (and of course some things are on the kids but I’m talking things the teachers only email the parents about). If the teacher emails only you, ask the teacher to include your husband next time and forward the email to your husband so it’s on both of your plates. [/quote]
