[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 420356, member: 6705"] See, Susie, my parents didn't do stuff like this a LOT - but it was done. Mom would make sure if I needed to take something for a class party, that it was made the night before. On rare occasions, when she could get off work, she would come in. It didn't happen much simply because Dad was out of town, Mom was pretty much a single parent. And Dad, when he WAS in town, would do stuff - but again, not a LOT. So I do try to be there for my kids' stuff. Not as much as before - I have no PTO left from court, Onyxx, etc. - but I will try. Though when Jett asked me this morning for "a lima bean" because he needed it for class, I kind of was put out. He has known about this for a WEEK, needs it today and doesn't ask till I am on my way out the door. Natural consequences, kid. [/QUOTE]
