[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 460515, member: 6705"] Several years back, husband and I helped on O's PTA. Started well, turned into a disaster (thanks to one of the members being a friend of bio). The only time I could actually do anything during the school day, I took a couple hours off of work. The kids attend 8:20 - 3:20. I work 7:30 - 4:30. Umm... WHEN am I supposed to have the time? The football club did this - each player had to have 5 hours of time volunteered on their behalf by family members. This was NOT easy to do, with 2 kids - 10 hours. Fortunately, my parents, husband and I all worked it out together. Made it not so bad. But this was after work, and on weekends. [/QUOTE]
