I hope someone from tonight's meeting reads this poll. I think the answer is clear.

Our daycare seems to have a fundraiser almost every month. I realize that schools/daycares need to supplement their classrooms but I do not think my 3 and 4 year-old should be selling anything. I have not participated in the sales and instead (if my budget allows) give them $10-20 at the close of the fundraiser to use as they see fit.

Well then...where's your $20? That's why they do the fundraisers.

I would rather donate 20.00 to the PTA or school than sell those magazines my daughter came home with....or the overpriced wrapping paper, etc.

We let kids opt out of things because of less logical reasons.
