Summer School

Don't you just love it when you are trying to do the right thing by your child, foster child, adoptive child, niece, nephew, etc & another adult who just doesn't get it ruin it for you?! I really wish people would think before they speak.

A friend of our, whom Haidyn loves for some reason even though he doesn't know him very well, said when he found out we were doing summer school "Oh man. What a bummer. Let the poor boy off to have some fun!" Poor boy, he only does 2-3 hours of school on average, a day. Poor boy, he is out sailing when his kid is sitting in a classroom bored to tears or fighting peer pressure. Poor boy! He goes on more field trips, has more weeks off than his kid going to public school & he gets a better more well-rounded education! Poor boy my foot!

Twenty-three percent of all knowledge is lost when kids stay out of school for a month, twenty-three percent! Poor boy, I could have kicked our friend in the shin!

Haidy just looked at me as if to say, do I really have to do summer school......?

Thanks friend.
