[quote=Anonymous]There's a coat, shoe, backpack, supply drive every year from The United Way, local tv stations and *gasp* WALMART. I've stuffed buses for kids that didn't even attend my kid's school and they were never a recipient of any drives. Not to mention adopt a teacher. Don't ever sign up for that. That teacher will call you weekly demanding all kinds of things. Anyone doing without needs to go find the things they need instead of waiting for it to land in their lap. I for one am tired of my white privilege being used as a reason for others to get free stuff. Early on I saw those that claimed they couldn't afford trying to make those that could be responsible for not giving enough. Just because I can afford my own kid's things doesn't mean I can afford to buy for the whole class. The gift card giving is out of control. The PTA is nothing but a dues paying shakedown organization.[/quote]
