Parents expecting people to pay for their kids activities. It's out of control.

I don't mind kids actually getting out and doing the work via door to door. I had to do the same for baseball growing up.
I don't mind selling super bowl squares, raffles etc. I've never done those but not offended by them either.
I pay for my kids stuff out of pocket, like since the dawn of time. I'm sure many of you are the same way.
Saw a new one this week, a mom doing an MLM claimed their kid is "hosting" an MLM "online party" for their activity and 100% of proceeds will pay for the costs.
Said kid is 6 or 7 years old.

Teams used to do carwashes and what not. Now they just beg on the corner of intersections like the homeless.

Tell the mom you want a different type of party in exchange for the money

I'd rather just donate than them ruin my car.
That's still good in my book. At least out there putting in some time.

How are the Battle Crickets supposed to maintain our private jet doing car washes. You want us flying coach every weekend? That takes a toll on these kids.

I don’t mind fundraisers if it’s selling something or raffle
What I don’t like is the whole calendar thing where they ask you to pick a date and donate that much. So if it’s the 30th you donate $30….that’s dumb

We sold Krispy Kreme donuts by the dozen. Folks would pre-order and we would deliver them on Saturday mornings. Had to be at Krispy Kreme at 5:00 am to pick up.
Now they just sell the certificates. frickers.

I know a couple who makes over $250k. They are constantly asking for travel baseball donations and now have a Go Fund Me setup for their summer travel tournaments. Not sure why anyone would donate for that.
