I like my dd to do a few after school activities but omg one of them is so demanding; for us mums. They are doing a show whcih is fantastic but during half term when my partner is coming to stay and we want to do lots of day trips etc. They want us to go to dress rehersals, and help out at the two shows during half term. Plus the tickets are really expensive. My dp will love to see the show etc but I do resent giving up time to help with rehersals etc. Their tack is if you can't help out at the show the child can't participate as they are too little. I'd love dd to do the show but I just don't want to give up days helping out.
Anone elses kids have extra curricular stuff which chews up YOUR time. I think it's all very lovely but I am a busy working mum who wants to find precious time with my dp who I hardly ever see at half term. Could they not do teh show during term time rather than encroaching on holiday time? I sound so ungrateful.
