[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]i volunteer with my church to help kids who have reading problems improve their reading skills.  i also volunteer with habitat for humanity.  however, going with the argument of pta supporters, i am a terrible person since my time isn't spent ON THE PTA!!!!!

seriously, pta parents, if you spent as much time educating others as to the benefits/results of an active pta and less time bitching and being exclusive, you might do better.[/quote]

No one said that you're a terrible person for not spending time on PTA.  We all have finite resources both of time and money.  Sounds like you have made your choice to spend both in other areas.  I think the OP was wondering how the PTA can catch your attention for spending some of both or either on PTA-related activities.  It sounds like you feel that the parents on your PTA have not been willing to accept your time and effort when offered (I am basing this on the "exclusive" comment).  If so, then it's their loss.  If you have not offered, and are just assuming exclusivity, then, perhaps you have jumped to conclusions.[/quote]
