[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh I should add as well. Some of the best teaching I do as a parent is when we travel. Language, geography, history are all supported by raising kids who are aware of being in a wider world. I don’t ask teachers to thank me for that when I return either. [/quote] Why would they thank us for parenting? Everything you listed is what we [i]should[/i] do as parents. Teachers dont need to thank us for parenting by teaching our kids when we travel any more than they need to thank us for toilet-training our children, supplying toothbrushes to our children, or clothing our children. It is our JOB as parents.[/quote] Agreed— and providing work to a child who has been absent is their JOB as teachers. No special thanks needed.[/quote]
