school "obligations" by
Beeswing
x-no-archive: yes
Okay, here I go (grabs flame-retardant blanket). :) I believe my husband's and
my obligation is to our child, not to the schools.
We make sure our daughter gets to school fed and reasonably rested, prepared
for school, having done her homework. We support her lessons at home by...

Has anybody looked at these? We have two girls sharing a 10x10 room.
We don't plan to add on to our house, so we are looking at our options
to minimize the space that the beds take up....

Example of teaching religion in the schools by
Claire Petersky
My younger daughter's class is reading The Secret Garden. As a way to
learn more about the background of the story, the class has been divided
up to do reports and presentations on traditional English and Indian
culture. For example, one small group is doing the food of India, and
another, the food...

lead hazard in apparently all Christmas lights by
andrea baker
Hi folks,
For those of you who were around in misc.kids back before
misc.kids.moderated was formed, I had posted a few times about
commercialism at Christmas. This post is not about that, but I would
like to do a little prefacing here for anyone who might wonder why I,

Disaster plan in place for your family? by
Claire Petersky
It's difficult for me to believe that there has been zero traffic on
misc.kids.moderated regarding Hurricaine Katrina, when practically every
other on-line forum (web or usenet) has had so many messages.
In any case, considering Katrina's aftermath, I was wondering what people's

Expulsion Notification by
Scott L
Over the weekend, at a neighborhood party, I learned that
4 of DD's classmates had been suspended, and maybe expelled
for smoking pot in the boys' room (during the last class
period!). If such a thing happened in your kid's school,
would you expect some kind of notification from the
principal...

Would volunteering be a conflict? by
beeswing
x-no-archive: yes
There's a private school locally that I wouldn't mind supporting, and they've
listed that they need volunteers, including committee members for a committee
I'd be interested in. I wouldn't mind volunteering the time, but it is true
that we're likely to want to apply to the school...

Books in verse for 2.5yo by
Robyn Kozierok
I went to the library yesterday with the goal of picking up some
picture books for my 2.5yo that are written in rhyme. Not books of
poems, but books where the basic story is in rhyme (like Dr. Seuss). I
was surprised by how hard it was to find them by just pulling
likely-looking picture books off...

parenting in the land of dessert by
Karen G
The thread on bedtime snacks got me thinking. I have one child who
thinks dessert should be served at every meal and should always be ice
cream (although she might try some pumpkin squares or jello on an odd
night). I have been trying to make dessert not unusual, but not
mandatory in our home. ...

Trick or Treating Part2 by

I've read the trick or treat thread with interest. I'm curious about
parental attendance while trick or treating. At what age do most of
your folks think is acceptable/appropriate for kids to knock on doors
with mom or dad? We live in a HUGE neighborhood where we know most of
the people. It's...

Tween decorating 101 -- Lime green bedspreads, anyone? by
iowacookiemom
Henry is busily decorating his new room in our soon-to-be occupied new
home in Texas. His color scheme is denim-like blue and lime green.
The influences of Trading Spaces are showing -- he is insistent that
we can make anything we can't find, and doesn't seem to realize that

News and a 5 yr. old by

The world isn't always pretty. If you're prepared to watch the news
WITH your child and help them understand what they see, I don't see a
problem with it. I was always up on current events around that age,
and I believe that discussing them with my folks helped me think
analytically about the...
