[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]i hope they cancel monday and tuesday. it was wonderful last week when kids came for three days. [/quote] So you're a teacher who wants the kids to be in school for fewer days so you don't have to work as hard? Please quit for everyone's sake.[/quote] why must i be a teacher? i have two kids, one in middle and another in hs... when they are at home on snow days, they get rest, we bake cookies, we get to go out and walk the dogs in the normal daylight. i love my children. maybe you had rotten parents or are a ghastly parent who abhors the predicament you got yourself into by have unwanted kids. teachers deserve time with their families too.[/quote] That sounds nice. I’m a full time working single mom. When school is closed my MS kid sits on the couch and watches YouTube all day because I can’t take time off to bake cookies and go for snowy walks. [/quote] NP and it’s really tough when your kids are young and need daycare. I remember those days well. I am not a single parent but we had to work during snowdays and it was so stressful, finding last minute daycare. If they are in middle school, surely they can stay home alone. I will have to go to work tomorrow but my youngest is in HS. I am now hoping for a snow day after years of dreading them and you will get there too. She is always exhausted from the AP classes and will take any time she can get to sleep in a little! And now she can bake on her own. Snow days are stressful for working parents of little kids. The older kids love any extra time to sleep. [/quote]
