[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe some families are struggling and don’t feel it’s prudent to contribute to such non-essential nonsense. You do you. [/quote]

Our school dictates the parties.  I don’t care if you donate but yes, we see your the biggest house in the neighborhood and drive the fanciest new car and then scream poverty over donating some napkins from dollar tree.  Your kids will have fun and be treated the same either way.  [/quote]

Your school tells you that there needs to be a party, or that it needs to have pizza and fancy napkins?

And is it the school or the PTA?[/quote]

School dictates it. Dollar tree is fancy?   A few $5 pizzas is fancy.[/quote]

27 $5 pizzas to be precise.

Most schools have free paper towels that work just fine to put a cupcake on.  So yes. Judging a parent because they won’t make a special run to a special store is absurd.  I am happy to have my kid eat off the school paper towels.  I am happy to send you 30 napkins from the stack in my kitchen.  If you are not happy to have those napkins in your pictures then please purchase them yourself.

I am a parent who contributes to the school.  My kid’s teacher know that.  I don’t need PTA mom to validate me.
