[quote=Anonymous]We have gone to elementary schools all over the country, and this thread on DCUM is the first time I have ever heard a majority of moms who are on the side of those ridiculous school supply lists. Everywhere else, including at our 2 fcps elementaries, the parents all complain about the lists. Don't you people remember how fun and exciting it used to be to shop for school supplies? To comb through the bins trying to find the perfect kitten folder or to try to talk mom into the 48 count marker set? Much better than running around town trying to find the purple, yellow and orange vinyl pocket folder with brads. I would rather receive a list to but for my kid that was not pull your hair out specific (like 4 folders, 2 notebooks, crayons, scissors, fat markers) and a list of class supplies such as wipes and glue sticks, and a request for extras for the kids who run out or don't have them. Keeping it simple is way better and much more fun.[/quote]
