Being a dad and husband first. Everything else is a side job.
So it’s 1/2 way though this part of the year and it was time for parent teacher conferences. I still don’t really understand why they have them this way.
Here is the scene – It’s a first grade classroom and three adults are sitting on chairs which force your knees into your chest. We sit there and chat for 2 minutes about everything but school. Then she tells us that everything is fine and we’ll see you in a few months.
The school only scheduled 10 minutes for each student with the teacher. And I know that the techers are really busy but what are we supposed to get accomplished in 10 minutes? What if there really was something to discuss?
BTW – She’s doing GREAT !!!
