It just irritates me so much!! We are trying to get SD involved in extra curriculars. We know that we will pay 100% of the tab but feel it is in her best interest. It will help her be exposed to more people and more experiences. Right now the thing is 4-H is is a wonderful program with so much to offer. But there are rules that are stressed and must be followed. One of those is 70% attendance to all meetings. This amounts to about 3 meetings a month. One monthly chapter meeting and then whatever activity you join they may have meetings monthly or every other month. So SD is in two extra activities so it amounts to three meeting a month. Two of these fall on our week. One on BM's week. SD has already missed two months in a row for the chapter meeting. So if she misses one more she gets kicked out. It just sucks because BM won't let anyone else take her. But she always forgets or has plans on the night of the meeting. There is one tomorrow and if she misses it she is out. Oh well just have to vent about it }:)
