If a school made my child (or my nephew, since I don't have kids) pick up someone else's trash, I would hit the roof. Now volunteering to pick up trash to keep the community looking good, that's fine, but forcing a child to clean up a mess that the child did not create, I would not allow that. I'm with the mom on this one.John Hartenoreply@blogger.com
