The kids are even nastier now.
They don’t get a break.
We used to go home, even after a tough day, and got a breather.

Now...they are on the phones, on the computer - and if you’re getting bullied it can be non-stop.

Parents have to step in to...and I’m sure most concerned parents do their best.

However...there is a certain group that shows up that school and says...”how could you not know this was happening!!”

As if teacher and principals are supposed to spend their off-hours monitoring the online conversations.

It’s a little bizarre.

We’re one of those “bad families”....

Kids do not have email, cell phones, Facebook or Twitter. Internet is for homework and they are supervised when they’re online.

Home time is for decompression...homework, family time, doggie-playtime, team sports, chores & info sharing.

I keep hearing how overprotective and strict we are....but the kids are doing well in school (even our special ed daughter), they have alot of friends, who are always begging to come stay at our house and no one seems to complain about our tough, but fair, rules.

Pretty sure we’re doing something right.
