[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The trophies don't cost that much, maybe $10 each max. I remember when my kids got trophies at age 3 for their first soccer "team". They were so proud, and I still have the pictures. [/quote] It is $10 per kid for crap that we pay to have recycled or sit in a landfill, and pay again when our kiddos think they need a certificate for turning in their status report at work every week. [/quote] "Our kiddos" who? My kid is in middle school. She's not getting certificates at work. Meanwhile I've been getting certificates at work for decades, and I'm Generation X. We didn't get participation certificates when I was growing up. And neither did the Baby Boomers who had the idea of giving me the certificates at work.[/quote]
