Twan - nothing. I still pay my PTA dues and help when I can, but I don't go to the meetings anymore. First of all, I expected a group of people working WITH the teachers discussing important things. Ours is just a fundraiser. Then they also changed the meetings so that working parents CAN'T make it - 3:00. So being that I am not an active member I just said nothing. Maybe they have some kind of policy I'm not aware of or something.

TG - I can understand the diapers. But you don't think it's more important to teach a kid not to steal than it is for her to have a non-nutritous munchy food? Not to mention, most of the students are just now running out of food. Those on food stamps got their groceries on the 1st of the month.

I would have gave it to her and told her the next time she has to pay $$$. I think she was made to feel like a thief, and it would have been better to maybe talk or have someone say something to her parents. You know I may be wrong, but it would be in my head that maybe it was the only thing she had to eat. Kids do live in poverty!! What was the cost a buck. (I'm not saying you pay for it) If the kid was wrong her parents should have been told.

I wouldn't give up the PTA either I would take it as the nature of the beast. I get pissed off at the parent council too, most of it is just fundraising and they are sooo disorganized.

The diaper incident I thought how wrong it was for this guy to steal with his children there and what if he got caught and that was part of the reason I said nothing.
