I am interested to know what your thoughts are re end of year presents for teachers? At my DS school, one of the mums is trying to get a collection going for DS's teacher, to try to get a bigger gift. I come from the mentality that I do not want to feel guilted into buying something, and would much rather have DS make something for the teacher as opposed to buying something which he has had no input into.
Thoughts?
Also, a friend of mine who is a teacher, was talking to me about this the other day, and she was wanting to tell parents she did not want anything, mainly because she and her family are moving to America in the summer, and do not want extra "stuff". She did not want to appear to be presumptuois (sp?) by sending home a note saying that. She was asking what I would think if I received a request like that as a parent, and I was not really sure how to answer! Again, your thoughts would be appreciated, I can pass them on to her, as I did not know what to say!
