[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So don't! I promise you, absolutely no one is keeping score. I taught for many many years, and the majority of families didn't give or the room parent would organize one class wide gift and I had no idea who did/didn't contribute. Please don't give out of a sense of obligation.[/quote] That is not why I am asking. I am not complaining. I only seek to understand the reasons behind this American tradition.[/quote] America is a tipping culture. These are basically holiday tips. It’s not that deep. [/quote] +1 Which country are you from, OP? I’m sure there are cultural differences that seem strange to most Americans. Like said above, the US has a tipping culture. You really didn’t know? It isn’t that hard to understand.[/quote]
