Of course, I h...I totally agree with your feelings! Of course, I have a soapbox, too, but, maybe we wouldn't need so many "programs" if we taught our kids to grow up and, you know, work for a living? Earn their grades? Anyway, I love that quote. So true. <br /><br />And if you want to try "confused," look up a P90X Kenpo video. It took us like 3 sessions to where we could even just do all the moves - forget breaking a sweat! :) However, now I feel like I could really throw a punch if I needed to. So that's good. :)JGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03116405895683599572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7814740137597406278.post-50077840330240579252010-02-24T17:54:38.639-05:002010-02-24T17:54:38.639-05:00I think going along with preparing kids for the fu...I think going along with preparing kids for the future...we have to stop censoring things so much. I'm sure you know that song that one of the first lines is "before I leave, brush my teeth with a bottle of jack"...our most listened to local radio station censors "jack" out. And "drunk" and "tipsy" and "junk" when it refers to a butt. Our students aren't allowed to read anything that would actually teach them about real world issues: Freedom Writer's Diary, Huckleberry Finn, and other books that have the potential to impact in a very positive way. We are treating our kids like babies and not teaching them to think for themselves...therefore sucking at preparing them for the future.<br /><br />/rant.Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14527818007332848959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7814740137597406278.post-31510596268054468172010-02-24T16:43:07.161-05:002010-02-24T16:43:07.161-05:00Love the military wife poem, so true! :)Love the military wife poem, so true! :)Kathrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07062774818419855236noreply@blogger.com
