[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The lengths people will go to to justify not volunteering for their kids’ school is wild. If you want to have a say in how money is spent or how things are done, get involved. The absolute worst people are the ones who do nothing except complain, criticize, and suggest how the PTA could do things better, but never ever sign up to help with anything. If you think you can do it better, sign up![/quote] Arguably it is actually worse to use the PTA as your own outlet to get more influence at the school to favor your kid and your ideas. Sometimes this stuff is a zero sum game and it takes away from other kids and families. [/quote] What's the answer? The PTA can't be all things to all people. Your pet project may not be someone else's. But you really shouldn't complain when you don't get off your ass and at least try to get involved and speak up for those other kids and families.[/quote]
