cjthedog64 That should have been discussed among the school people before saying anything to the kids. I've never heard of taking kids out to eat, but ordering pizza or something to the school instead. Even just taking the kids to a park for a field trip and letting them...

Rianda7642 That is awful. I don't believe school officials should lie to students. If the students have to pay for their own lunch, then why can't they decide where to go? I don't know the age of the kids but if they are younger I know they would be happy to go to...

tater03 No, I don't think that this is a reward at all. And it is so terrible to say that it will be paid for and then to change their mind. However it came about they should honor what was first said and pay for the students. This might not be the correct thing to do...

emeraldisle I saw where you stated you and some other parents are going to go down and discuss it with the principal. I think you should and that is the right approach. This isn't a reward, it's a way to single out the kids with money. I know myself I'd be in the same...

wachit14 You are absolutely right about this. If the children were promised a free lunch for raising the school standards by scoring well on standardized tests, then they should definitely be treated to a free lunch. I think the principal realized how much it was going...

KissThis That isn't any kind of reward at all. What are they teaching those children? Besides teaching the children that only those that have money deserves rewards they have also taught those children that adults lie. That is the worse lesson that an adult could teach...

gypsylady28 Our school is pretty good about this stuff, they get rewarded with a pizza party usually. Sometimes it is in the classroom, and sometimes they have it at the local park that is near the school. They get to go and play in the park, then they have pizza...

Monica Is this a public or private school? If this is public, then I would say this is typical of a public school. Always making promises and never following through. Gotta love the public school system, always ready to brainwash our children, but never ready to...

curvychick77 How unfair is that?! As opposed to them telling the kids they will be paid for then making them pay. I find it wrong and unfair for those kids. It's basically a broken promise by making them think they will be treated. It would be more of a reward if it was...

bindishah I think this is unfair. If you were told that the school would pay for your kid's lunch then thats how it should be. Otherwise refuse to participate in this event. Rally around all the parents and protest by refusing to let any of your children go to this...

Darkwing I don't think you'll have to worry to much as I'm sure they'll reduce, or even stop the meds once the blood clot is dispersed and he will get his strength back. I'm sure they won't release him from care until they're sure he has his strength back anyway....
