[quote=Anonymous]I once went on a sleepover, and the next day went to Quaker meeting with the family (this would have been in the '80's). Their meeting was having a fundraiser and the kids stood on a stage and an "auctioneer" described what they said they could do such as baby sit or mow your lawn and people bid on them. It's mind boggling to me that people thought this was OK, and particularly in a denomination that had such a strong abolitionist presence and commitment to social justice. But that's what happened![/quote]
