Dear Margaret: My son's elementary school is doing a fund raiser in which each child is to sell six items from a catalog. At the end of the competition, those children who sold six or more items are treated to a fun party with a bounce house, refreshments and prizes. Those children who were not able to sell the required number of items stay behind in the classroom. My son is always able to sell the six items (with my help) to family members and friends. I'm really upset about this whole competition because it's unfair to those children who don't have the support of their parents or guardians or don't have the money to meet the goal. This same competition is run every year. How can I handle this properly?
