I'd be THRILLED if my kids' teachers called or sent notes home for something other than misbehavior. WOuld it be so hard to hear or read, "Your son aced his multiplication tables today!" or "Your daughter played with a lonely girl on the playground today." <br /><br />hmph.

I help out at my son's school every week and I marvel at how, between 2 teachers (plus 3 educational assistants), they are able to keep 60 students in line and behaving rather well, when I could barely manage with only 2 at home! :)Buckeroomamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02408502555249594576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910185897876102936.post-53184454706248134512010-11-14T21:59:51.355-07:002010-11-14T21:59:51.355-07:00Yeah what's up with our kids being completely ...Yeah what's up with our kids being completely different at school than they are at home?!<br /><br />When I had a conference with Cole's teacher she said, "Oh, he never whines in class. In fact, he's very respectful and so polite." WTF? Is this the same child who constantly whines at me, "I want juice NOW!"<br /><br />When I heard Camille Grammar say she has 4 nannies, I almost puked in my mouth. Oh and then did you see she took the kids on vacation to Hawaii, yet they never once showed her with the kids???
