We visited elementary kids on our trip. I don't think it would have been as good of a trip if it had been older kids. Not because of the kids - but because they would have been older than my kids.<BR/><BR/>isaiah5513 - my daughter had to look your verse up. :) yes, it is easy to fall into a prideful attitude. i have to watch it, too... because i love what i do and it is easy sometimes to think that it is the "best" way - but sometimes getting to know the "other" ways (ps and private) helps you to keep a level headed perspective.<BR/><BR/>jewlsntexas... no, the kids are glad to be homeschooled... but it was a good experience, none-the-less.<BR/><BR/>bolina stretta... i'll say ciao if it means hello as well as goodbye. i'd love to say hello to you all. ;) hugs and kisses from TX! So what does bolina stretta mean, anyway?<BR/><BR/>dana... :) i have been much too negative in the past about ps due to my own bad behavior problems in school! after all, i was a really bad kid until I met Jesus.<BR/><BR/>lady why... you are most welcome. glad you enjoyed it. :)<BR/><BR/>jen... thanks for the hat tip! ;)<BR/><BR/>gooblink... yeah, i have thought of that before... just in case something happens to mom and they have to go to school - i wouldn't want them to feel like the sky was falling.Sprittibeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07992769339576987845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13517164.post-62032025324441883262007-12-12T13:12:00.000-06:002007-12-12T13:12:00.000-06:00What a great post and field trip, Heather.

I am thankful to be free to home school, but should anything happen to change our situation, I would want my kids to be comfortable where ever they're educated.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13517164.post-58172386311134183812007-12-12T11:33:00.000-06:002007-12-12T11:33:00.000-06:00This was great info!

I've met a lot of homeschool families that think they are superior, and that is definitely not a trait that goes with the lifestyle they are going for. Personally I think this might be one of the most valuable field trips yet. I bet all the public school kiddos were VERY curious. :) What grades did you visit?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
