[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]My daughter went on a Field trip today. 1 teacher and 1 volunteer for 26 kids. Do your forbid your 8yr old to go on field trips?[/quote]

What school is this?

When my kids went on field trips when they were 8, the teacher would have taken about four or five volunteers for that number of kids. 
This was at public schools in Virginia and California.

MCPS school.  The location could only take 1 volunteer per class.  So 103 kids and 4 teachers and 4 volunteers total.

No, my kids would not go on that kind of field trip.  Either we go, or our child does not go.  We've been on enough field trips to see kids get separated with parents not paying attention or on their phones, especially working.  My kid in MCPS doesn't like most of the field trips so when we ask, [b]he[/b]'s glad to opt out and do something fun with us instead.  We had a teachers only field trip, no volunteers and we declined and kept [b]her[/b] home.[/quote]

Is your kid a he or a she?  Also, in the history of field trips at MCPS, has any child ever been lost?  Kind of doubt it.

Your anxiety seems like it might be overpowering you and smothering your child.[/quote]
