Sad Times/Welcome to Malden


One of the kids in Mia's class just told everyone that her dad "worked at a place that he cleaned after it was closed."  The coolest part of his job according to this little girl was that sometimes when no one else was there he would steal her the newest Barbie books.  Awesome!  So either her father was dumb enough to tell his daughter that he was stealing and think she wouldn't share that information or he didn't think there was a problem with what he was doing.  Second - another girl in Mia's class recently tried to convince her to STEAL a bracelet from the book fair.  Mia said she told her more than once "just take it.  take the bracelet."  Super awesome.  What are we subjecting her to here?

One of the reasons why I, along with lots of other parents, decided to home school my children. Peer pressure, before most are mature enough to handle it, can be very detrimental. Kids that young, who think it's okay to steal, have most likely had some negative adult influence.
