I'm crying. Haven't they heard unemployment is ridiculously high? How about being grateful they even HAVE jobs?<br /><br />Why do we put teachers on such high pedestals anyway? I can think of a few reasons, but I'm pretty sure it's Oprah's fault....Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09766716788178729762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2646306973717230649.post-2590842738003953082011-02-19T17:15:00.185-06:002011-02-19T17:15:00.185-06:00Love it!

Seems like a good time for it, eh? <br /><br />But in the meantime, here's a little tidbit I learned this morning...those Milwaukee teachers that "<a href="http://www.fox6now.com/news/witi-02182011-mps-closed-friday-story,0,4838415.story" rel="nofollow">called in sick</a>"...their <a href="http://maciverinstitute.com/2010/03/average-mps-teacher-compensation-tops-100kyear/" rel="nofollow">average annual compensation tops $100,000</a>!!! These people need to sit their skinny (or fat) butts down and get to work. <br /><br />Period. <br /><br />That. is. all. <br /><br />For now. :-)Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08866617541381737602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2646306973717230649.post-89210861713093487402011-02-18T23:24:11.819-06:002011-02-18T23:24:11.819-06:00"You've got five minutes to make your bed..."You've got five minutes to make your bed, get dressed and to the kitchen table, or the video games are gone for the day," works really well.<br /><br />Or the younger two boys like to use Herogian's electronic animal soundbox on 'rabbit in distress' to get him out of bed.Jane Deskishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04013510422965908449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2646306973717230649.post-88100047299336894262011-02-18T23:22:20.432-06:002011-02-18T23:22:20.432-06:00Id like to try some of this "parenting" ...Id like to try some of this "parenting" you speak of.
