medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Maddy,
:( My heart goes out to you and your daughter. I loved the things my mother and I used to do together...drawing maps and comparing languages and basic etymology. I always say she was not only my best friend when I was a child, but my best teacher! She, in her wisdom, used to say that teachers were born, not made. From what I've seen over the years, this appears to be the case.
It's certain, though, your daughter will build on what she did with you, rather than the peanuts she seems to have got at school!
I think all we can do in these situations is hope for happy endings and sensible mentors for all those poor kids out there. What has to be avoided is the child who goes home heart-broken and says they feel as though they're being cheated out of an education.
All the best,
Sarina.
