As I am approaching my 16th first day of school as a parent, and my sister is approaching her first...I love this. Go Get em Susanne Furda Zertuche! I have had a child in elementary, middle, or high school for 12 straight years now. I am no longer the new, eager kindergarten mom ready and willing to throw my hand in the air to volunteer and be the homeroom parent contact, fundraising chairwoman or PTA president. That ship has long sailed, sister. I have since found my people among the 40-and-over school parents. We are the ones all hiding in the corner, slouched over, head hanging low, simply too burned-out to be super involved anymore. We are the been there, done that school moms, and we are looking for a few good 29-year-olds to take over. Please. Take the hell over. Because we have long since abandoned harboring any guilt over simply saying the word no. And truthfully, we dont care what you all think about us anymore -- Why doesnt she help out? She is so uninvolved in her kids education! Hey cute little baby-wearing mama born in 1985, I just want to say a few things: I am sorry you missed the 80s, and saying no is the new black, and when you hit 40, you too will get bloody brilliant at it. So can you and your Gossip Girls just go ahead and throw all the class parties this year? Because were going to yoga.
