Ossanさんの提案を考えていました。できるだけ多くの人が参加できるトピックがいいな思いながらなかなか思いつかなくて。

Anyway, in this country, people do a fund raising to raise money, say from the presidential campaign to a trip to Disney World. My friend's niece is in the girl scout and they are raising money to go to Disney land. They sell cookies to raise money. Other groups may sell frozen pizzas, offer car wash and etc. High school students do this fund raising to get enough money to participate in some tournaments in distant cities...

What do you think of this system. How do you feel if your son/daughter needs to sell 3000 boxes of cookies to be in a trip to Disneyland?

>What do you think of this system.
It is good system indeed.
Though I don’t think Americans treat their stuff with care, through working and making money, we can come to use money properly and treat our stuff around us with care.

> How do you feel if your son/daughter needs to sell 3000 boxes of cookies to be in a trip to Disneyland?

It is hard to reply.
That’s also a matter of degree, according to ages and experiences.
WAKAさん、こんにちは。

>I agree with the idea of fund raising basically.

I think it is a great experience especially for children to plan for it and carry out by themselves.

>People have rights to say "no" for the girl scout cookeis if they don't want or can't agree the porpse of the fund raising. If it dosen't succeed in the end (if they can't go to Disneyland), they can learn something.


 agree with the purpose ですね。
 Yes, they can learn something. I just hope this system doesn't give too much burden on children's parents...


>(In Japan this system is not so popular. I think a lot of Japanese people hesitate to say no for their neighbors and co-workers.)

I agree with you. It's not easy to say 'no' in Japanese society. Also, it makes harder to ask people since we know this mind set.

 stuff という言葉ですが話し言葉でとてもよく使われますが書き言葉としてはあまり適当とは感じられません。他の言葉を使ったほうがいいと思います。
