My attempt was to do it in the most equitable way by keeping costs down ([b]$20 is affordable for our class demographics[/b]), [b]being transparent (the shared google drive), having accountability (excel spreadsheet)[/b] and good communication without it sucking up all my time.  It has helped to set a precedence for the next room parent and has set expectations about what to expect in terms of communication for the entire class. I am grateful to the parents who want to give more and have covered for other parents.  [/quote]

You are an absolutely terrible person, and I hope the school never allows you to have the opportunity to publicly humiliate other parents like this.  How dare you assume that you know why people are too busy to deal with your demands for money or why they might not be able to afford it.  Case in point:  I was blindsided last spring by a cancer diagnosis, treatment, and medical bills.  I didn't feel inclined to share all of that with everyone in my kids' classes, since it's my private info, and on paper, I would have looked like someone who could afford your "mandatory" contribution.  Many people have major, horrible things going on in their lives that consume all of their mental bandwidth, and they just can't keep up with every petty demand from the school.  I guess in your view, it would be okay to try to publicly shame people like me about being a non-payer.   :( [/quote]
