Facebook Theater – Parents, This Guy Really Feels Your Pain With School Holiday Emails
Parents, we know this time of year can be stressful. As if there isn’t enough going on with the crush of the holiday season, your kid’s school is sending out email after email with details about this holiday class party, and that special pajama day, plus the holiday concert.
The list goes on and on.
Well, take heart because we found someone who feels your pain.
Dave Ogleton is from Devon PA (a suburb of Philadelphia) and the father of six. And that means six times the number of emails at this time of year.
And six times the amount of head-spinning.
And what exactly is “Candy Cane Hair Day” and who’s going to clean up THAT mess?
Facebook Theater
ANNOUNCER – Welcome to another edition of WDHA’s Facebook Theater – private drama performed publicly because we just need you to know.
- Hey, I just got this month’s school schedule email. That’s why there’s more than Folgers in this cup. “Hi parents. So on top of this already being one of the busiest and most stressful times of the year, don’t forget next week to dress your kid for Grinch Day, Reindeer Day after that, Polar Express Conductor Day, oh, and Candy Cane Hair Day the following day.” Do they put actual candy canes in their hair or they dye it?
- “Please note tomorrow’s holiday party” – tomorrow’s holiday party? – will require your student to bring in 24 homemade decorated, gluten-free, vegan nutless cupcakes.” What in the Martha Stewart?
- Oh, and please don’t forget we also have early dismissal the third week of this month on all days ending in ‘y.'” What? “We’ll email complicated details about that in an equally annoying separate email. Happy holidays.” For who? Hey, do we have mistletoe? Yeah, I just want to put it above my butt so they can kiss my a$$.
@fitdadceo Make sure to check on your friends with kids this month, we definitely aren’t ok. And if any of my kids teachers see this…just kidding 😬😂
