[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I first learned about summer swim and found out practice was 9:30-10:30 AM every day, I just laughed and said "oh, that's not for working parents." There's no way. We take our kids to the public pool after work and they're happy just horsing around. That said, yes, it sucks. I'm the only one in my family who doesn't get a summer break, and it does make ke grumpy sometimes! (DH is a professor, so has a lot of flexibility in when he does his research, but still isn't willing to sign on to summer swim; it would mean no full day camps at all.) [/quote] It is not for most working parents, but it sounds like it is for working parents that have your husband's job. With remote work, more parents have flexibility to make it work, especially with older kids, but yeah it is hard and not worth the time and effort for everyone.[/quote]
