[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, our family gave thank you gifts, cards, letters of appreciation and red envelopes to all three recommenders.

[b]Screw these posters. [/b]I am Asian.  My child will be a model student, work hard and excel, and treat his teachers with utmost respect.

We show our respect with volunteering, giving generously for staff appreciation and other occasions and giving gifts for thanksgiving and end of school.  And we have done that for the entire academic career of my kids.

And by the way, did not even have one single Asian teacher for the 15 years my kids were in school. It was 99% White teachers and one or two Black teachers. NO ONE OBJECTED.[/quote]

They’re teachers who don’t get generous gifts and know many of their colleagues do. Policing parents on an anonymous board is easier than having greater self-awareness.[/quote]

How? The cash gifts by parents were given privately to the teachers, not in front of everyone. So, how did others know that generous gifts were given?  [/quote]
