Dealing With the Board of Ed - Blog Entry

I have to admit that my monthly attendance sheet required in GA has been my biggest problem... and I do have a bit of attitude about it. After all, when are they not in attendance?

Anyway, this has been my best year as far as getting it in ontime each month. I realize that If I don't improve this habit, my son won't be able to get his drivers liscence in (sob) in less than 3 years, and the state ties school attendance to the right to drive.

Thank you Karri... it is a struggle every time I send my kids off on a group trip, or just to their academic and arts classes. My only consolation is that because they are in slightly more controlled environments with less children, chances are, they are safer. However that did not help the Amish children this past winter.

Yet, I know I can't keep them with me forever and send them out, and pray.

I do have a problem with the whitewashing of slavery. Portrayal of slaves as happy-go-lucky is an unrealistic portrayal, and I prefer my kids understand the truth... If my kids and I were to review that movie, we would probably have to watch Roots and Gone With the Wind also, and spend some time discussing the movies and the how they are correct and incorrect.
