I brought the girls to see Cinderella at the Palace Theater in Manchester on Tuesday. Despite being way overpriced and not really produced well, the girls seemed to enjoy it. There were a ton of children being cattle driven here and there and just gave me a nod in the direction of homeschooling.
There are a ton of reasons why I want to home school, but one of them is knowing that my children will be respected by myself as a teacher and a parent. I don't agree with those (including Chris) that say they are going to have to deal with that type of negativity in the "real world" so they need to learn how to deal with it now.
Not exactly. See I don't think I should have to create a false scenario on life NOW, for a fake scenario in the future. This is their Real World that they are living. I don't ever want them to think that they have to sit through being stepped on, or live life poorly just because someone told them "life sucks, that's how it goes." No, they should know that they have the power in them to change their life, and if something isn't going how they want it, then it is only them that can change it, but they will always have that option.
From someone who was stepped on, and continues to be pushed aside by family members, I want them to know they do not have to suffer through it! Speak up girls!
