By coincidence my church is having its cook off this a.m., and I am ready. Your blog intrigues me, as it seems the essence of family involvement in student education. I hope teachers can get in omn some of this action!

Comment on Sarah’s Appeal on Wizards of Waverly Place by Wm Chamberlain

It seems a pretty typical tactic in these types of shows to make the adults look silly. I remember watching Saved by the Bell with my eldest daughter (now 21) and reflecting on that.

Yes this plan sounds acceptable.

Sarah:

I accept your proposal. However, as we watch this together I want us to watch and see if the characters act consistently disrespectful to teachers and adults. This, as I recall, was my main concern and complaint against this program.

Maybe when we watch this we can pay special attention to how the main characters treat adults, and keep some notes on what we see/observe.

Does that sound like an acceptable plan?

This is a wonderful story. You tell it so well. It certainly brought a Christmas smile to my face.

Comment on No kids in Oklahoma liquor stores by Dee

I realize this is an old post. However, I just came face-to-face with this ridiculous law today. It’s dumb. I can’t take a baby in a baby carrier in any liquor store to go buy liquor. Is the baby buying liquor? No. Am I buying liquor for the baby? Umm, no. I, an adult of legal drinking age, am buying liquor. Or I would be, but since you can’t take your child with you into the store, I am not. Ridiculous.

I love the story. I also learned something because I did not know that Santa had to ask permission from the President to leave presents for us! Thank you for sharing the story.
