And, from what I understand, girls get a two week vacation before Pesach. And yes, they help their mothers. But they do have a nice amount of time for themselves as well.”
Ours never did. Two days before Pesach (three if erev yom tov was Monday, so they were given Friday also). Otherwsie they had school, and I was really ticked off because I needed ALL my kids’ help.
What made it even worse, the schools always scheduled PTA conferences within the week before Pesach. Like I had nothing to do but sit in school all evening just before yom tov, waiting for a five minute conference telling me how sweet my girls are. Why thery could not do this the week AFTER Pesach, is beyond me. But no one ever asked my opinion.
