Yes, that's my experience too.

Where I live, there seem to be many working parents that enjoy flexibility with their schedules such that they are able to volunteer. One woman I know is involved in so many different activities with school yet she works 40 hrs/week. She doesn't have a 9-5 type job so she is able to structure her work hours on any particular day such that she can still do quite a bit of volunteering - definitely more than most of the SAHMs I know!

Ime, even sahps have access to their emails frequently throughout the day, without being "at home".....as does anyone with a phone with internet access.

I don't have internet access on my phone. Sometimes I think it would come in handy, but I've seen too many people obsessed with checking their phones and I don't want to be one of those people!

Funny story...


An old HS friend was in town this week, and a group of us had yet another Facebook-inspired mini-class reunion.
