[quote=Anonymous]PP- I can totally understand being annoyed with FA being misused in some way.  Though I think that some of the optionals should be offered to FA recipients if they would be the only ones not able to attend or if the optional is associated with a school activity (orchestra, chorus, etc.) that the child has actively been participating in. (though I fail to see why mom's friend should ever be paid for, and mom only makes sense to me if parents had to go along for the child to be allowed to attend).  But surely not all of the FA recipients at your school(s) act like this?  Maybe I'm just  oblivious, or maybe it's just a difference between schools, but I've never heard a FA recipient at DC's school bragging about being on FA or complaining about not getting extras with FA.  Then again, I've also never met any of the FA recipients with million dollar houses driving brand new Jaguars that people mention on this board either.  At any rate, you sound like you have legit complaints about how FA is disbursed in some cases.

I'm really curious to know the thoughts of the people who take a no FA ever stance on these boards.  [/quote]
