[QUOTE="Wiped Out, post: 264337, member: 1631"] Congrats to all of you who are volunteering. In recent years I have slacked off in my volunteering and would love to start again. I hate to wait until difficult child is much older but think I may have to. The only thing I'm doing right now is Leader of Prayer at church which doesn't involve a time commitment as I would be at church anyways. When I was very young (age 12) I started volunteering for head start when it was a summer program. At about 13 I started volunteering for Project Motivation, which was a program for helping Hmong children. As soon as I was old enough I was a candy striper and then started teaching Sunday School which I did for several years (until difficult child was a toddler). I think so many of our children today need mentors as gg said. They would love to have a big brother or sister. My cousin did this for years and loved every moment of it. [/QUOTE]
