[QUOTE="Andy, post: 341590, member: 5096"] Maybe a better way to utilize that fundraiser is to purchase sweetgrams to be given to parents, grandparents, neighbors, siblings, ect. to be given from the recipient outside of school hours. I know that having things delivered during the school hours is fun but it just highlights the "Popular" kids sending a very public message to everyone else that no one likes them. difficult child bought candy cane messages for kids at Christmas. He did a GREAT job in writing them out. Very creative! Not just "Merry Christmas". He was not in school the day they were handed out (last day before Christmas break). I called and asked what would happen with his and was told they would be given to him when school started again. NOTHING! He never did get a single one! I am sure he doesn't remember or atleast has not said anything about it. Kids do not need to be put through this type of "lesson" - especially at a school endorsed activity. There is enough of being left out in everyday things - no need to create another way to make public that no one likes them. [/QUOTE]
