[quote=Anonymous]At our big 3 private, no one talks about FA.  I have no clue who is on it, and I don't care, it's none of my business. I would never, ever ask someone how they paid for anything, unless we were blood related. I would never answer anyone who asked me such a question.

As your child gets older, you'll start to realize that some of your child's friends may have different manners or behaviors you don't particularly like, but your kid likes playing with that person and so you tolerate them.  Same thing for parents of your child's friends.  So don't give them any ammunition.  Some kids and parents will take FA information and use it in an untoward way.  That could be bad mouthing, teasing, whatever.  Is that right, no.  Would I ever hang out with people like that, also no. But you may not know people are saying those things until you kid comes home from school saying they were teased.  I would never tolerate my child treating anoth child like that, but I am awestruck all the time at what other parents enforce, allowed and permit in their own kids.  [/quote]
