[quote=Anonymous]Our team offers 7:30 am, M-F and 5:00 pm M,T,Th practices. Most team members have working parents but I’ve seen a variety of: -attending only evening practices -attending morning practice and going straight to camp/work - kids ride bike or walk to pool with older sibling or neighbor -carpooling with another family -parents work remotely -grandparents help -sitter/nanny brings the kids It is not showing privilege to do any of these options. Some would consider working a 9-5 job is a privilege (or even 8-6!) We have parents in the medical field that work 4 ten-hour days/ week and they make it work. We have parents who work labor jobs with non traditional hours that make it work. But like everything else in the world, if it doesn’t work for your family, nbd. There’s no requirement to participate! No one will judge you if your kids don’t join the swim team.[/quote]
