[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because people think poor kids should be happy with whatever they get. [/quote] The few families that I know in Rockville who were submitting these requests collected gifts from a number of churches and social services agencies. Their kids received A LOT more for Christmas than most kids. In fact, many "poor" parents continue to be poor because they make unwise, frivolous purchases (including for their kids) whenever they get a little money. This attitude is transmitted to their kids. Asking for more basics and more simple toys, books and sports equipment would help their kids a lot more than an X box.[/quote]
