Kids on a school buslike rocket Morgan made it through his first whole week at school, and is adjusting to his new school quite nicely… Though it is taking him a lot longer to get used to going to bed early again. *sigh* At least he’s happy to be back at school, and loves going there.

<rant> IMHO… It is so important that children have a mostly (there’s always events that sucks in everybody’s life) positive experience in their schooling. One bad teacher, or bully, can make a place that should be safe, fun & challenging into an awful place to be. It’s a parent’s job to be aware of the things going on at school, pay attention to any change in their child’s personality, and to nip any problems in the bud before they become worse. Once minor problems develop into major ones they can adversely affect the rest of your child’s education from then on. A child should look forward & enjoy going to school, not dread it. </rant>

We’ve been lucky that Morgan has had a good experience with school so far, and hopefully he won’t ever have a bad one (knock on wood), or at least one that can’t be fixed… Though, with him having autism I worry about his future all the time anyway; especially when he is not with me or Pookey, but that’s life.
