DYK I hope they can keep the flu contained? Christopher's reaction to your concern sounds like typical boy
DYK I don't know...Maegan still really loves her pepto bismal walls and it's been 5 years?
DYK I have hated them from day one?

dyk ok back to the sub - when I got there with Abi the kids were lined up in the hallway after their bathroom break
dyk Abi was of course, hesitant b/c she was expecting mrs bogema but she's in a workshop
dyk so I said I would stay for a bit to get her settled
dyk the kids told the teacher she is supposed to touch the heads of the kids who were good b/c they get a treat back in the classroom
dyk so she did
dyk one kid said oh not me? and she said, No you weren't good
dyk then after she went down the line, she goes, okay if you didn't get a touch on the head, don't expect a treat.
dyk it BOTHERS ME
dyk THEN back in the classroom she's got them sitting on the rug, telling them in a tone and language I would use with high schoolers about how mrs bogema does stuff one way but she's not here, and she (herself) does things a different way so the kids should bare with her.. blah blah - WTH?
dyk poor kids
dyk but overall, I hate, HATE the reward system. I don't want my kids getting rewards for maintaining human behavior! lol
dyk you get in line and close your mouths b/c that is respectful and what the authority has told you to do - NOT so you can get a GOLDFISH
dyk I think this system has attributed largely to the entitlement issue - you get SOMETHING for nothing - or rather for doing just the basics that you should do b/c you are part of a group, an office, a family
dyk at my house, you do your chores, you behave b/c that is what you are supposed to do to maintain your position int he family
dyk and that can be conveyed without them thinking they are going to be cast out, lol, I would never turn them away no matter how they behave, I just try not to let up on my epectations or give them expectations of rewards for doing their part.
dyk you want a reward? You have a bed, blankets and I fed you dinner. Be grateful.
DYK what a relief about the ICU bill!
DYK that's too bad about the swine flu, and that Christopher isn't taking it more seriously.
DYK last year around here, they started declaring "swine flu" without doing the testing to truly determine whether or not it was H1N1.
DYK I just got the best haircut!!
dyk same thing around here - they call it the swine flu if they send the culture off.
dyk but it is taking weeks upon weeks to get the cultures back - I got that info from a nurse at our ped's office who is in our small group
