What a child eats at lunch is his family's business, not the school's (as long as he is eating, which he obviously was...).Jen Currinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18060680766873559371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7872367422164120930.post-44572901444287708512008-09-14T16:45:00.000-04:002008-09-14T16:45:00.000-04:00Its so weird trying to acsertain what is the basis...Its so weird trying to acsertain what is the basis for people's decision making. The other day a mom in the store was screaming at her kids, "Ok. I'm leaving you. Goodbye." And they said, "See ya." It makes me punishment is ofter a means of trying to establish control when if the goal had just been to teach the child self-control all along, the need would not exist for tactics and all.

Sigh. I hope we still have time to teach life skills!Boneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13956935016401705771noreply@blogger.com
