Absolutely!! I don't relate it at all to poor kids getting a free anything. I like to relate it to my twins cheer leading team, and how many non-cheering activities they and their parents get involved in at their affluent school. The kids are simply "with it".

Hi KTC:

Unless the parents aren't working, how do you expect them to stretch their time at school, these aren't 'soccer mom's.'

I'm all for children being responsible. Including picking up after themselves, but do it as a whole group, not just because you're eligible for 'free lunch.'

After all, I don't want 'better-off children' learning you are entitled to do nothing because your parents are living a better life.

Can we agree on this? ;))
