[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can we just be honest and admit that we do it because we want them to treat our kids well? [/quote] This is exactly why where I grew up, gifts of value and gift cards to teachers weren't allowed. This is why as an adult government employee who makes a salary similar to a teacher, I'm subject to a strict ethics policy for gifts. It is shocking to me that it's considered widely acceptable and expected to give cash-equivalent gifts to teachers who are also government employees. I'm sure nobody thinks they'd have any unconscious bias toward wealthier students but...come on. If we could just say "oh it won't influence me" we wouldn't need rules or policies. [/quote]
