[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I remember this from the weather closings!  I think the insinuation that everyone that disagrees with you doesn’t work or has married “Dr. Biglaw” is kind of weird.  People that have high school kids have also had elementary schoolers.  Funny how that works.  Get a grip.  Maybe YOU shouldn’t have had kids!  [/quote]

And I’m sure the people with HS kids have forgotten what it is like to constantly be stringing together leave and shuffling schedules and paying for camps that add up in order to maintain employment (and the job economy here is currently awful here as a cherry on top).

Just like I’ve already moved well beyond things like daycare waitlists, milk supply, sleep training, tantrums, etc., which now feels like a blip.

But I would never tell parents in the thick of it with babies/toddlers that the days are long but the years are short and they should just deal with it. I’m sure someone with adult kids could come along and tell you your current problems are nbd.

And I’d rather be temporarily grumpy about a calendar change than a smug B.[/quote]

Also, I bet when your kids were little schools didn’t close at random throughout the year to accommodate every religious holiday under the sun.[/quote]

Have a seat please. 
When my kids were little, there was early release once a week every week.
