[QUOTE="sabrinathecat, post: 6220366, member: 89838"] I Know! Why don't we get a Kickstarter going, the funds to have a research group do a comprehensive study across the country, polling all the parents who attend school functions for a year, to gather and process how effective they think the presentations and events are? Would that count? Oh, but then it's only one year, and you only get the parents who choose to participate, so really, that would just be anecdotal and opinionated too, wouldn't it? Just that it would be anecdotal to that year, and based on the opinions of a limited number of parents, who may or may not know what the goal of the event was. I'll take the experience opinion of someone in the position of direct contact and communication over the statistics of someone who may or may not have chosen to skew or alter the data, or who may or may not have gathered complete data. I wonder if one or the other is choosing to be obtuse, or if you are actually talking apples vs oranges here? [/QUOTE]
