Kid Salesman

Ed, I’m just beside myself. I just found out that my great-grandson, 5 years old, is in school for a week in Bordentown and he’s already come home with paperwork to sell magazines. I don’t think he even knows how to read or write. With all the school taxes we pay, I don’t think they need to sell any magazines.

And what percentage of those sales will actually go toward something that benefits your great-grandson? —Ed. Note

I had a similar situation. My daughter started kindergarten and a week later had a fundraiser to sell candy, gift wrap and a bunch of other crap to raise money for the PTA. Well I signed up to be a PTA member and have even already helped out at one occassion. I can honestly say I know my daughters school needs the money. At the function they ran out of cups and juice. They started serving yellow water out of an old old cooler to the children until me and my husband stepped in and stopped serving it. I even went to buy cups and have yet to be reimbursed. However they spent hundreds on a loud dj for a bunch of elementary school kids. If they are that hard up maybe they should have brought a radio and spent hundreds on FRESH water and new coolers. However, it might not be the need for money it might just be a lack of intelligence and leadership.
