[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anybody else feel bad for the parents who feel the need to volunteer for everything their kid does-helps on the field for every football game, chaperones every field trip, flies to every school trip? And they act like they know all the kids and the “kids just love” them. It’s almost like they are reliving their youth [/quote] Have not read through the comments to this post but as a working parent with three kids can confirm that I have encountered maybe 1-2 moms who are kind of like this. The vibe to me is more like they see being present for all this stuff as their mom job. They either have one child and don’t work or have 2-3 kids and a nanny. [/quote] And I will add I don’t find it annoying. I volunteer when I can and don’t begrudge other parents who volunteer more. And I don’t take their inventory beyond clocking they find being present important. [/quote]
