[quote=Anonymous]I gave up PTA meetings because it became clear that it was not a discussion on anything, just a lecture with the pretense of being a discussion and I could get the info from other places. I also quickly learned that the school is run by sahm who take great pride in running things and my place was best spent letting them plan things and me just signing up to help in pre assigned time slots. I do the evening things my kid is interested in and any volunteer thing that involves my kids class. I think the secret is what works best for you. For a year or two I stressed about doing enough and then realized I was making my life miserable. So now I do what I can, but when I do volunteer I make sure to actually be present. So many of these events turn into parents chatting at the side, not really helping. [/quote]
