It's great to see teachers being innovative, interesting and sensitive. Loved the ideas you've put fwd and so understand the need for healthy eating. I am a mother to a one-and-a-half-year-old son and it's quite a fight to get people (my family) to feed him to the right things. I am not the finicky, organic-food only mom but yes I do have a few very reasonable dos & donts which often others don't quite understand. <br />It's been interesting to read your writings and maybe I cud pick up a trick or two to entertain and encourage my little one. Patient/innovative parenting isn't my gift really!The Coffee Cuphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12131985275719213931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2823598095930008096.post-57130746198800222662010-06-02T18:24:30.012+05:302010-06-02T18:24:30.012+05:30Believe me Deepa, teachers leave far more deeper p...Believe me Deepa, teachers leave far more deeper prints ..in some cases more than parents. teachers can actually rewrite the bad script written by parents. ( This from a person who has always been a teacher 27+years). But here is the sad thing. 3 weeks ago I had to decide that teaching is no more a joy for me!Racism and total uncontrolled behavior from kids here in US schools. I want to just be with the good memories of what I used to have!Mary Abrahamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06395229309917173939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2823598095930008096.post-57154479987390028612010-05-23T21:48:38.088+05:302010-05-23T21:48:38.088+05:30From what I gather from the post, you are an excel...From what I gather from the post, you are an excellent teacher, and love being that too.

My mother-in-law does this with Adiv all the time, and it bugs me! she'll call him under the pretext of showing him something that isn't there. He isn't an idiot. Now he just doesn't respond.<br />c. I hope the school Adiv goes to, insists on healthy food. My sister-is-law's kids take chips and other junk to school. that is their snack. their mother says the same thing, "this is what they want." I wonder who is in charge.Primitive Lyrichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03430554041394907390noreply@blogger.com
