9. my nieces and nephews say they dont understand me because i use
Edited on Thu Jan-25-07 11:16 AM by seabeyond
too big of words. disgusts me. my 9 yr old kicks ass on his vocabulary and my 11 year old is adult reading level. the kids that dont understand the words i use are also from a family that shuns books. and are proud of it. you know the colbert attitude of shunning books.

again, as i say in the post above.... it is the parents. and their job.

those parents that dont know this stuff, how helpful are they to their kids? not the teachers.
