just got notice from xsbaby’s HS about their first week of school teambuilding BS that they do. it involves a 3 hour drive to Harrisonburg, VA, for an overnight trip. She is going to bow out of that one yet again. I will not insist that she do something that i would never in a million years want to do and for which i see ZERO value. so her first week of school will be abbreviated.
Agreed, any schooling is better than hanging out. I’m glad xsbaby is opting out and not just following the crowd. I see no reason for teambuilding nonsense either. It’s a small enough school where they probably all know each other anyway. It would make more sense for a really big school to break kids into smaller groups and make them feel like they belong, the way big churches do.
