Kids and Teachers

Please visit www.loveandlogic.com for tips on helping your child make respectful & responsible choices. (Today's blog is a direct excerpt from Jim Fay of Love & Logic.) Happy Parenting -Jason

I wonder what it would be like if all kids believed it was their job to get their teachers to like them.

And all teachers believed it was their job to get kids to like them. Do everything you can to elevate your child’s teacher in his/her eyes. This is an investment you can't afford to pass up.

I know too many kids who go to school believing, "I'll be lucky if I learn anything in this lousy school." These are the kids who frequently hear critical remarks about education, the school, and the teacher. Unfortunately, kids take on the beliefs of their parents.

Don't voice these concerns in front of your kids. Deal directly with the school or with the teacher. You'll be glad you did.
