[quote=Anonymous]Yes, I've always hated Boosterthon for all the reasons mentioned. I explained to my kid all the things that are wrong with Boosterthon and why we don't buy into it, but still she felt bad because she was shamed every day at school for not winning prizes. She also complained about missing subjects she liked at school because they had the Boosterthon people coming in all the time. This is not what I send my kids to school for. I take it as an opportunity to teach them to be skeptical of this kind of hard-sell w/ cheesy "prizes" operation. [/quote]
