[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just got the note from daycare suggesting a $70 TOTAL min donation from each family, more if you have multiple children. I think expecting $100 per teacher is way out of line. [/quote]

[b]I would laugh and throw that in the bin. No donation from me.[/quote][/b]

+1.  I was in charge of one of these end-of-year gift baskets.  We asked $10 of each family.  Only four or five sent
 anything.  So we retaliated by putting the names of the families who had actually paid on the gift basket (there were 16 or so in the class).  OP you are asking too much on top of tuition.[/quote]
[b]That's really petty. I understand the impulse but that was a terrible thing to do. [/quote][/b]

Were you one of the parents who didn't give :-D.  No, I don't blame the room mother at all.  I know how hard she worked to try and get the 15-16 parents to send in ANYTHING.  She emailed them, cajoled them, reminded them.  Nothing.  It was the same with the school auction.  We couldn't get 100% of the room's parents to contribute even $1 so we could make 100%. I don't blame the room mother at all for doing it.  Seriously only four families out of 15-16 contributed.  I would have done the same.  She wasted so much time on the project.[/quote]
