My son is working on his Eagle packet now. My daughter is earning college credit in high school. My younger two girls are also top of their class - Meg may be on the Academic Decathlon team this year (third one of the kids to make it if she does!). Our idea of TV is Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune becauae at least they make you think! Cell phones are a high school privilege - but only if needed due to erratic practice schedules. Amelia has one - Mike will get one before school starts. We both think that being raised with consequences worked for our parents and works for us as parents. We are old-fashioned, but it's working for us.BabySisnoreply@blogger.com
