Responsibility

On our way home from Bend, we were talking about responsibility…such as putting it on children’s shoulders. Dad asked would it be more irresponsible to (for example) forget to take attendance or to place the responsibility of remembering to tell him to take attendance on a student. Auntie Cathie replied with it would depend on how you handled the situation…asking them to help you remember or telling them to help you remember. We came upon this when we got around to talking about me making sure that Heather and Bradien had everything they needed for the Community Arts Festival…so to avoid last year’s events. And by me making sure she really didn’t mean putting the responsibility on me to make sure….but just keep an eye out…you know, a slight difference between giving me full responsibility and only having a bit of it. Auntie Cathie had a real problem with Sil asking me to avoid last year’s problem…even though she knew what happened. She believes fully that teachers shouldn’t put responsibility like that on kids. Dad came back with the example above. We talked for a long time on this subject, each person making valid points. What do you think?

Sophia, the baptized baby, is so cute. I got to hold her. I love babies.

My cousin Breanna looks almost exactly like Becca except Breanna has blonde hair. It was so weird seeing her and thinking it was Becca.

Well, I should do some homework that is due tomorrow. Night!
