My husband has been sharing with me the things that some of you have been sharing on this posting. I noticed that he was still logged on so I thought that I would share my 2 sense (as any woman would ) I believe that my husband is teaching good values, to work towards your goals and dreams. Any one that knows my son, will quickly realize what a fan he is. What is wrong with Brayden collecting can? Can you think of any thing else that a 5 year can do to assist in making money for his hobby in addition to his weekly allowances for his chores at home? As for raising money for a helmet, he has a helmet. What is wrong with upgrading on a helmet? The real reason that Brayden would like another helmet is his current one is green that I purchased for him last year and he would like a red one to match his suit and car. Thinks are not handed to him on a silverspoon, I explained to him that he has one that meets his needs and that if he wanted a new one he needs to work extra hard for one. The "garage sale" was an idea that Brayden and his dad thought of. Maybe he should not of said a "fundraiser" How many times do we support sports teams, bands, cheerleaders, etc on their fundraisers for new equipment or uniforms. As my husband said he is sorry for offending anyone, but as I shared with him that is why we live in America and have freedom of speech. If we all had the same ideas, beliefs what a boring world we would live in.
