So many people who are parents now were never parented, so they don't know what to do. Others are so busy working that they are handing over the job to other people. Many people seem to expect teacher to "parent" their kids and that is just stupid. However, what you are seeing is the result of a lack of parenting. It is very frightening because all of these people are going to be "in charge" at some point, and they don't have a clue about ANYTHING.

I see so many cranky, exhausted kids because they are living their parents dream! Truly sad we have come to a place where kids can't sleep in due to practices of all sorts! If the child wants it great, but I have seen so many children in tears because they just don't want to go!Quiltingrannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08885973879588867172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8040223448706025231.post-43090746095281110322011-08-17T12:17:54.150-07:002011-08-17T12:17:54.150-07:00Preach it sister!!

Let them play in the mud, let them build sand castles, let them dream about dinasaurs. Why does everything they do have to be a competition.
