[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Kids love these days off.[/b].they break up the monotony of a long school year. Teachers generally don't mind them because days off here and there really aren't that disruptive to learning. The only ones who really care are...parents. Not sure why we want kids to experience the same 9-5, 5 day a week grind of so many of their parents.[/quote] See, I don't get this. Kids love not going to school and playing video games all day, but that doesn't mean it will help their academic progress. I have always found the days off to be incredibly disruptive to my kids, especially my one child with ADHD who absolutely needs a struct routine. [/quote] My kids hate them. No kid loves them unless they have a SAHM parent who can take them to play. Most of us are just piecing together a plan to keep them sane and not fighting with one another or entertained. Everyone prefers routine. [/quote]
