Yes, thats right. What you are really paying for is your own child's ease to learn in a less disruptive classroom and to have more opportunity to interact with their teacher and peers in a meaningful way, isnt it? And to set an example to your own child that helping another is a good thing, even if its only providing lunch. If your child had a friend over your house at lunch time, would you deny them a sandwich and milk, or would you ask them to brown bag it at your house?
