They need you to be a babysitter first. What you are teaching is to obey authority. How to stand in line. Hurry up and wait. It is so ridiculous.

Exactly. I figured that out as well when I was studying to be an elementary school teacher in college. At the end of it all, there was no way I could go down that road.

Your daughter is lucky to have an aware papa.

One of the things I am aware of is the fact that her papa is really lucky to have her as his daughter. She is way smarter than her papa was at her age. Must be the papa mama mix. LOL
