  Case: Receiving Gifts
Are we to receive monetary gifts from parents? What if a parent gives you $100 just because. What are you suppose to do?

We have all received gifts from parents at some point in the school year; Christmas gifts, Birthday gifts, and teacher appreciation gifts. What is the limit of receiving gifts? Is this a breech in the code of ethics to receive such a gift? What should you do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
You should check your states code of ethics. I am almost certain that every state is similar. You should not receive monetary gifts nor should you charge parents or their kids for services.

Comments: Money is not an appropriate form of "help". Check the state guidelines before accepting any sort of assistance from parents.
