Carol Perkins: Give child time to play after school BACK TO SCHOOL ADVICE FOR TEACHERS & PARENTS: "Students love action. I want my grandchildren to have those teachers in every class. Spontaneous and unpredictable but organized! I think of the little fellows getting off their buses and hope they are facing a kind teacher with some lively blood. (Maybe a transfusion could help those who have lost the spark.) Teaching is hard but going to school is harder. The day goes by faster if no one is watching the clock!" - CAROL PERKINS Next earlier Carol Perkins column: Carol Perkins: Growing tomatoes an adventure By Carol Perkins Don't ever think that your child has had an easy day just because he has been in school (doing nothing I've heard adults say) For over six hours (if you don't count the time on a bus), he (she) has been confined. When he gets home please give him some time to play or relax or do nothing. If he has a massive amount of homework (which causes fights and friction) then that needs to happen after a little down time. Think about yourself. If you bring work home from your job, you want to have a cup of coffee, watch the news, mow the yard, or sit in a chair before facing it again. You might even want to talk to your family!
