[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The frequent attacks on the entire concept of volunteering at a school is one of the more surprising parts of DCUM.[/quote]

Especially given the correlation between parent volunteering and child academic/life success.[/quote]

I find this difficult to believe. Surely parental education level and income matters more? And highly educated, highly employed parents are not volunteering as much as SAHMs with a BA or even less. [/quote]

You sound ridiculous. Most of the SAHMs I know have masters, law, or doctorate degrees. They are actually successful and wealthy enough to afford to stay home. I am one of these parents. I worked when younger but am wealthy enough to be able to stay at home with my kids in my late 30's and on as I always wanted to do. Most of the moms I know still working in their 50's and 60's can not afford to stay home. [/quote]

Man, your over-the-top frantic defensiveness is wild. There was nothing that the PP said that warranted a response like this. Incredible. [/quote]

Not defensive in the least just correcting the pp with their incorrect statements. That is all. They specifically stated that SAHMs tend to be less educated and I am correcting them. Now move along. [/quote]
