Let’s talk PTO and who’s involved with their kids school.
I get A LOT of mixed reviews about being on the PTO so let’s hear your thoughts; why did you join or why won’t you?
If you have served or currently do let’s see those back to school PTO boards for enrollment. Do you have a must have planner? Are you in any PTO group??
I would rather shoot my self in the foot 😂
I was pta vice president for 2yrs. It was definitely a lot of work but a good experience. My girls transferred to a different school district last year so i just volunteer now.
I am not part of the pto but I’m very good friends with the prez, Vice President and secretary. I do volunteer though. I ran the schools trunk or treat 2 years ago then the virtual pumpkin decorating contest last year due to covid we couldn’t do trunk or treat and I’ll be running the trunk or treat this year with the secretary again. It’s a lot of work. I recently ran into the treasurer and she asked me to join the pto to which I replied no but I will help out in anyway possible. I just don’t wanna be an official part of the pto. Too much politics involved and I ran into a bit of a mean girl situation when I did the first trunk ir treat. It turned me off, which is really sad because it’s really for the kids. The women who I took over for the trunk or treat was super helpful though. She gave me all the info I needed for it to be a success. I’m not kidding u when I say this women made me look so stupid in front of the entire pto, some teachers and the principle. I was so upset about it I told my friends that I would not do the trunk or treat again if she was involved in any way. She is no longer a part of the pto that why I’m doing it again this year. Good luck it’s a lot of hard work
That’s such a shame! I’m so sorry you experienced that girls can be so catty and rude. BUT I’m glad your back at it and tag me in the pumpkin 🎃 pics when you guys have it! How fun
We have been joining via google meets for the last year. Not president.
I don't sign up because everything that goes on in both my kids classes is always the same days and time so i don't want to pick and choose where to be. I do sign up to send paper towels, drinks, food etc in both classes though.
@mommiesgoneabitmad, No they do that after school but like homeroom parties and field days/trips and stuff like that the PTO and homeroom moms is in charge of here and I can't be in two places at once. 😂
@scream.queen, what is this home room mom we don’t have this how cool!
@scream.queen, but if you ever do master the two places at once tell me your ways
My friend and her husband are pto president. They're literally the only 2 people on the pto. It's quite sad. I'm kind of the unofficial secretary of it. I'll volunteer as much as possible behind the scenes but as far as helping at actual events...that's a no go. I like to attend them with my daughter especially since my husband can't always attend because of work. In my opinion all the hard work that is associated with pto at school events isn't worth missing the special moments I get to have with kiddo at her school while she's little, especially since she's my only one.
@mommiesgoneabitmad I say this ALL the time at work! Well...somethin similar. I say "Fuck this place, you KNOW at home I'm a president right"?!?! 🙄🤣
@massgirl We're a small country ass school though girl, I'm SURE your program is MUCH more to contend with! 💯
@leonardsquared, 😂 😂 😂 yessssss
I make sure to let it be known as well don’t take that shit lightly alright
I have been the PTO president for the last 2 years that Kai's been in school. It's EXHAUSTING. I also have a FULL time job though, like 55-60 hours a week full time. I enjoy bein involved though. I'm probably the LAST person anyone would expect to be involved in it. 🤣
@leonardsquared, did I mention I run a moms group once a week too 😂
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
??????October 2018 babies??????
Congratulations to everyone who have received their bfp!
