[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the room parent and we are not allowed to collect money from parents. I sent out a signup yesterway for an upcoming party:

Juice boxes
Sweet treat
Paper plates and napkins

That is it. Parents signed up within 20 minutes to fill the spots. Because it is easy, low cost and they only have to do it once or twice a year. Some parents never sign up. Some parents sign up multiple times. Whatever. Life goes on. [/quote]

If you only ask for 3/4 things, you don't give parents enough opportunities to sign up and if some don't check their email during the day or when you send it, the slots are all full.  You cannot complain if parents don't sign up if they don't have the chance.

I always put about 10-12 things and then put other.  That's usually where I have a parent sign up for pizza or other nicer stuff.[/quote]

What? I am not complaining. The kids don’t need pizza along with other stuff. Too many kids are obese. Cut this out. [/quote]

Once at school is not a big deal.  If your kid is obese, then something you are doing at home is wrong or some kids are just a bit heavier.  Its not your call to make.  One slice of pizza vs. a bunch of crap snacks doesn't make a difference.  I'm amazed that parents give their kids soda, candy and all kinds of there crap at home and then complain about a slice or so of pizza at school at a 3 time a year party.[/quote]
