LOL, I imagine there is some unpleasant parent involvement at times too :) I'm very outspoken with my kiddo's teachers, but I want and expect the same from them. I think of us as being on a team because this boy can pose interesting challenges for us. Thanks for stopping by!

Especially when they have movie outings. Which, thanks to an expired police check (schools up here must have one for you to work in the school) - I will miss out on this week. bummer. I better get it updated in the new year so I don't miss out again.
