I want to buy a gift certificate for my son's day care teacher as a Christmas gift.How much is appropriate?

Bring that overthinking under control friend btw - you might want to check out your jurisdictions policy on teachers receiving gifts - its possible they may not be able to keep it - of course given they are a former teacher possibly negates that.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
