Guest guest Posted May 22, 1999 Report Share Posted May 22, 1999 Here on planet Earth, kindergarten is where children learn social skills. They are considered by many of us humanoids to be the most important skills of all. I'm sorry, and everyone, but I just had to write this!LOL (and may the force be with you) ne, 59, Lawrenceville, NJ --- RAINBOWPED@... wrote: > From: RAINBOWPED@... > > In a message dated 5/21/99 11:11:27 PM !!!First > Boot!!!, acasinha@... > writes: > > << kindergarten rule #1 - play nice. :-) >> > > Uh, uh, I never went to kindergarten! > I guess I need to buy & read that book called, uh, > something like everything > I know I learned in kindergarten. > Well, everything I know I learned in outer space. > Geez, that gives me > an idea......another book in the making! > > RAINBOWPED@... > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Give back to your community through " Grow to Give.

Guest guest Posted May 22, 1999 Report Share Posted May 22, 1999 Geez, how did I ever get to the ripe old age of almost 72 without attending kindergarten!! I remember the day my Mom took me to school to start kindergarten. I took one look at all those savages and freaked out so she took me home for another year. Neither of my children attended kindergarten either. Since it all turned out all right we must have learned our social skills from interaction with the family around us and the neighborhood kids, church and social gatherings. Could it be that at least some of the troubles now being encountered in our schools are due to today's children receiving their social skills ONLY in kindergarten where there cannot be even a whisper of the basic reasons for right and wrong for fear that, heaven forfend, RELIGION may raise its ugly head? Forgive me for blasting off. You see I'm an ardent admirer of home schooling where I've met some of the most well adjusted, intelligent children on the social scene. They have entered college at the top of their grade and remained so throughout their college careers. One is now a lawyer, two more are missionaries, one is CEO of a growing company. You can hardly beat that. So CHEERS and what a lovely weekend this is. Jeanne and Mr. Biggles in Poultney VT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
