[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In every school there are those who volunteer to help make school better for teachers and students. And there are those who do absolutely nothing but certainly reap the benefits. In our PTA most of the moms and dads work full time. A few work part time or stay at home. We are all busy. However, we make time to volunteer because we know that it's important. Not only is the help appreciated, but we know that our children benefit by seeing us involved in their schools. [b]Parents like the OP are the takers. The whiners. The unorganized, professional victims[/b]. [/quote]

100% this. And you know what, OP. The moms and dads in this category do make the occasional remark (to each other...sometimes with a laugh and sometimes with an eye-roll) that "it's always the same dozen people" who do the heavy volunteer lifting--because it IS!
[b]But we do not go out of our way to belittle your choice to not be involved.[/b] Do it or don't do it. But don't dump on us for trying to build a sense of community for our kids and show appreciation for our teachers.[/quote]

It seems going out of your way to belittle someone’s choice not to be involved is exactly what is happening. Please stop. I would hope neither of you are representative of your respective PTA’s.[/quote]
