Part of being open is discussing whether or not having kids at chapter events (in general) is appropriate. No one here is getting on your case, we are simply discussing issues. All opinions witheld, you posted something here that was intersting to us and sparked alot of good discussion.

As far as my personal opinion, I would be open to having a woman with a kid in my collegiate chapter, as long as she understood that she was going to be held to the same particpation and attendance standards that all my other sisters are. This would mean making adequate arrangements for the children so that she can attend or sending in an excuse. As far as kids attending events, I'd be okay with it if it were something fun like the Homecoming Cookout where there'd be alumnae and other kids, but not chapter
