[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If my child threw food as part of a food fight and was told to clean it up and was given appropriate tools to do it (i.e. mop, brooms) I would have no problem with it.  [/quote]

But they were not given the tools. They were crawling on hands and knees. Therein lies the rub.

But if its cool for you all- then just sit back. I will look for your champion responses when its white kids on a video. :)[/quote]

You sound as if you're looking (hard) for something to be upset about here.  If my child participated in making this mess, I would be perfectly fine with her helping to clean it up.  It's called natural consequences...and personal responsibility.  Btw, I'm AA.[/quote]

+1. Agree. Not sure why PP is so fixated on the "hands and knees" aspect. I get down on my hands and knees to clean my kitchen floor. Am I supposed to feel humiliated for doing so? No. That's the position I need to get in to get the job done. I've had conversations several times with my son about not purposely making messes because it so unfair to the custodial staff who already have a huge job taking care of their school. I really think this previous poster has a weird hang up on hands and knees, and only she can address that. [/quote]
