If we tried, we'd all be in the same place all the time !!

Seems parents always have consequential choices to make.

Children come with an inherent parental guilt that you are not doing the best for them. I'm sure Pam has good reasons to be living where she is and it seems that she has the awareness to supplement her children's education as needed.

A child's education is also a mixture of learned input from many sources. The local school is only one of these sources. Everything in the world is an opportunity for learning.


Thanks Diver, yes I am a bulldog when it comes to the kids. Can't believe a basic instinct could be so strong but it really is. For instance they'll get their Spanish in the local schools as I can't give it to them the best way. My soon to be six year old and the three year old get regular walks in the desert now. They are learning on which plants than can survive on if stranded by car, or bus, or boat, or?? They know which tools they can use in the case that they have none available and they know about the importance of the shade and venomous creatures and how to behave around them and prevent accidents. Its the beginning of a life long career in education that they will get. All I can relate to are the personal experiences that I have and those define who I am. I am from an area that places huge importance on education and I've been communicating to all around me, education = freedom

Parents must always be on guard about the influences they receive;

Just what fishing brainwashing was Pompano trying on my kids ? :lol: Telling them to use feathers for grouper ?? :rolleyes:

Then he tried to bribe them with jewelry !!:wow:

Zack still hasn't taken his off, thank you !

have there ever been any american citizens doing any teaching in the local schools? either full time or just classes to teach English to the kids who would like that opportunity? I'm not bilingual yet, but have it in my heart to become so--hoping that my young kids will pick up a good foundation during our summer months in Loreto. would there be any opportunities for an ordinary college graduate to participate in the system; or is it not possible? thanks!
