   I feel the same, too busy being the mature adult to have any fun. If I do have time to just have fun, would I be any fun?

   It’s the single mom in her that putting the kids schedules ahead of her romance. She’s using the excuse that her kids need her to delay the romantic weekend and using the cookies to make her feel better about it. I’m a single mom during the week (dad works out of state) and I can’t even get myself to go out with a girl friend bcs my kids are so busy.

   Re: times kids get on the bus

   This would also cause logistical problems for families where the parents both work (or for families with single parents). If the kids go later, the parents get to work even later than that. Many families also have older (high school) kids who get their younger siblings off the bus. The afternoon schedule would have to remain the same for that reason. If the morning schedule were then reversed, the younger kids would have a longer school day than the older ones.

    The only way a mother can “get away from it all” is to go away by herself, i.e. without the kids.
