Thanksgiving, was: Halloween and Thanksgiving

[Guest guest]

The Thanksgiving/Harvest Festival note where I wrote

that she is not allowed to eat school food and I'm not

sending my child to school without food came back

yesterday with a note asking me if we can still pay.

The $6 covers the meals for the day and the activities

that they are doing. I guess I can still pay the money

if she is doing the activities. I want more details

about what exactly they will be doing before I make a

decision if I am going to withhold her from school

that day. I'm assuming that it is okay for me to pack

her lunch that day as long as I still pay the money?

what do you all think? How should I respond to this?

Pay the money and pack the lunch. Sometimes we overpay for the things we want,

but it's worth it here. Like when I pay over $3 for a rare kids meal at

McDonald's for a piece of bread and cheese. I'm really paying for the toy. It

took me long enough to stop arguing about that part of it. Now I'm just happy

for not having to send back a disgusting cheeseburger! One time I paid More than

$2 at Taco bell for a tortilla with tomatoes. A different issue, but if a button

isn't on the cash register, people think it's impossible to get it. Sorry to

steal your issue, I wish you the best of luck and peace of mind.

I've paid anywhere from $5-$6 for kids meals with

veggie burger, fries, drink and toy at Burger king in

the past. I don't patronize mcdonald's though.. they

don't get any of my money if they can't even offer

vegetarian french fries.

I decided to pay the money and send her lunch - well

I'm leaning towards that anyway. We have a teacher's

conference on Monday. I'll get some more details

about what exactly they will doing and make my

decision from there.
