Woman shares the stress of private school events

In another article, Briefly News reported that being a parent is hard enough as it is, but being a parent of a child who attends a private school is on a whole other level.

One mother took to Twitter to air her frustrations. Private schools tend to host many functions, turn every event into a boujee affair and have 100 unnecessary dinners, teas and whatnot.
