[quote=Anonymous]OP, maybe you have to move to a neighborhood where it is less common for parents to volunteer every single day at school. That is not the norm for most families, as everyone on this thread has attested. If you wish you had more time for your kids and want to spend each day volunteering, then either you or your spouse need to find a job in the private sector and earn more, so the other can find a part-time job. Everyone that has posted here has either accpeted that they are victims of the "mad dash" and pay for before/after care or are fine with spending only 6 pm + weekends with their kids. When your kids get old enough, they are not going to want to spend that much time with you and your spouse. So either make the change now to spend more time with them while they're young and then ramp back up when they're older, or just accept the way things are. Sorry.[/quote]
