[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They have lockers in my DD's combined 5th/6th grade class.  When we went in to meet the teacher a few days ago, the teacher made a big deal about it and was like, "And you can DECORATE it. . .get a chandelier. . .maybe a little rug. . ."  My daughter's eyes were going wider and wider and she was buying into it and all I thought was, "Why is this teacher saying this?  Now I have to spend $$ to decorate a LOCKER too?  I can barely afford to cover the stinkin' school supply list."  DD's school has a LOT of wealthy families and they all up the ante and then poor little schmoes like my daughter and me come tagging along at the end, trying to make a minimally fun "effort" while everybody else has the latest and greatest.  :/  You mothers who do this?  Just stop.  Please.  [/quote]

Amen! This is exactly why I find it so annoying. In addition to the mom’s taking up space cutting paper and decorating when other kids are trying get to their lockers. I should add every single kid who’s mother was decorating their locker didn’t help and complained.[/quote]
