Re: Volunteer
We (I and my wife) do volunteer for our kids class trips and also for any IT related work at the school. I think I have made difference in IT setup a lot but more than that, its our kids attitude that motivates us. They are happy and excited when we volunteer on trips and they look forward to it.
On other side, we know all of their friends and have better understanding and picture of what they are talking when they refer to friends in their conversation.
