[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love how we judge past things with today’s standards. Perhaps the mother made the negative comment because it was special and she did want to be there but she needed to buffer her own hurt at the situation, she saved her feelings at your expense. Maybe you should ask her about it, not us. As for all you, we do things so much better now, parents your turn is coming. You won’t be spared from the critical gaze of your kids in the future as standards continually evolve and you’ve shown them you shouldn’t be. [/quote] +1 on this. How old are you, OP? Until 4th grade, I went to a private school, and my mom was one of the few working moms. I noticed it then and wished things were different, but I completely understand now. But even in that private school, there were no assemblies with parents that I recall. Parents today are expected to be available all the time. It wasn't like this in the 1970s and 1980s.[/quote]
