[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What kind of preferential treatment are you looking for from an elementary school? [/quote]

+1  [b]I'm planning to volunteer so I can get to know teachers/admins/staff and have a line of communication if my kid needs help or correction.[/b]  I think it's pretty bizarre to volunteer so your kid gets better snacks or fewer consequences for bad behavior or whatever OP is imagining.[/quote]

This is the preferential treatment I was assuming OP was asking about.  I think it's bizarre that you are volunteering for preferential treatment, and then judging OP because you imagine she is doing something different. [/quote]

NP- It's not bizarre to volunteer with ulterior motives. It's the most normal thing in the world. More power to OP if it actually helps her child at school. [/quote]

I said I think it's bizarre for the PP to admit they volunteer with ulterior motives and then in the same sentence judge OP for admitting they are thinking about volunteering for ulterior motive.  I only used the word bizarre because its the word the PP used when she judged OP.  [/quote]
