What is the deal with recruiting these little kids who can't even read and write to peddle wares? Disgusting!!!!<BR/><BR/>Hugs to you!Martiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18049225962948888764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14484567.post-44163251246082639742008-03-27T05:22:00.000-04:002008-03-27T05:22:00.000-04:00Amen sistah!

I did all of them when he was in kindergarten, and some in 1st grade, but I vowed I wouldn't do any in 2nd grade and I haven't! I HATE THEM!~NellyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14484567.post-6273177045211618942008-03-26T21:27:00.000-04:002008-03-26T21:27:00.000-04:00It's a lot too much.I was never big on fund raiser...It's a lot too much.<BR/><BR/>I was never big on fund raisers. From the time the kids had to do it I did take them around (they were too little to go alone) and had them ask because I felt it wasn't teaching them anything for me to do it for them. But I didn't push it and if they just sold to Nan & Pop and aunts and uncles, then so be it.<BR/>And it just gets worse. As the kids get older, not only do they have to do more and more fund raisers, but the parents are practically told that they have to cook for this and this dinner, make pies and cakes, donate a certain amount of money, etc. It's a real sore spot for me. And to start the madness in preschool? Completely ridiculous.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05334129707341089450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14484567.post-6280032526632167662008-03-26T19:01:00.000-04:002008-03-26T19:01:00.000-04:00Just one more reason why I am glad that I recently...Just one more reason why I am glad that I recently have chosen to home school ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14484567.post-4864640813027134142008-03-26T17:03:00.000-04:002008-03-26T17:03:00.000-04:00YES!
