Re.YR and evening Christmas play?

[MolotovCocktail]

Dd is 4.10yo in YR. She is doing her school Christmas play this week: one tomorrow and one on Wednesday. There is also an evening performance tomorrow which parents have not been asked about. A letter was sent home today telling us to return our children to school at 6.

My dd has been quite tired in the evenings (end of term fatigue, I think). If I'd been asked, I wouldn't have given permission to do the evening slot.

WIBU if I didn't return her to school tomorrow evening if she's tired?

I'm not really interested in who "wins" the thread, mind you. It's clearly not been as black and white as that.

Molotov - don't you wish sometimes you could just stop a thread! I think you got what you needed from this one long ago.

I am amazed it went on for so long! I haven't bothered to read it all to find out whether she went or not- lost interest long ago.

It sounds as if she didn't.

Good for you, Satin.

Don't know why I'm now being told to end the thread. I've replied to some posters on my own thread. Isn't that the idea?

I'm genuinely baffled by mn sometimes. It's like I don't know all of the rules.

(No need to reply).

I wasn't asking you to end it-just amazed that it has rumbled on for so long! A lot of it seems repetition which is why I am not willing to wade through it to see if she went or not. I surmise that she didn't.

If you'd read the thread, Satin, you would have seen other issues arise throughout. It wasn't just a 'should I take her or not?' saga.

I stick by my original which was that since you had advance warning in October it is too late to pull out at the last minute, unless an unforeseen circumstance that had changed since then. A 4 yr old who can't cope near almost half way through the term is even less likely to cope by the end of term. Even a 'might not come' would be helpful and they would know to have her in a small part at the back.

I see she was part of the chorus-the school sensibly decided that not all parents would get their act together to give proper advance warning.

@ Satin: you mean the read the thread and made the conclusion that I didn't take her because I 'couldn't get my act together'?

You couldnt have read it very well, dear. Were you in a rush?

*read the thread

Yes, dear I was. Can't think why I commented in the first place.

I don't think that you read my post either- after the hundreds of posts I think I got the gist that it was nothing to do with 'getting you act together,' now. You failed to think it through in October- that is when you didn't get your act together.

Satin, have this

I think you are more in need of
Happy Christmas-no more school for a while!

Yeah, you too.
