[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A little off topic, any my kid isn't school aged, but is there a reason that people don't just say 'no, school for my kids' despite what the school has said about openings/delays? I find it so interesting that some people will risk the peril of a icy commute because the school system says o.[/quote] When my kids were in preschool, they loved school and always wanted to go. Now they are in 1st and 3rd and whine and complain. If I say, hey school's open, but we're not going, then it makes school seem optional. The next time it snows, rains, or it's cold out, then we get - I don't want to go, I don't want to go. There is drama, complaining, and once in awhile scenes at the bus stop. However, if they get in a good routine of going to school, then they are fine. Their teachers say that have fun and have friends. I can't make going to school seem like it's optional because it's not. Yes, I wish FCPS had closed, but dh ended up driving them to school since that seemed safer than putting them on the bus (which never showed as far as we know). [/quote]
