School holidays..especially the 6 weeks {just started}.
I'd like to take a straw poll, are you for or against schoolkids having so many holidays, what's your opinion, you must have an opinion one way or another....... my opinion is simple I'm against.
They do not need so many holidays nowadays and that's a fact. When I was at school yes we had the 6 weeks holidays about August time but there was a reason for it, a reason that no longer exists so why carry on with it. It was on t.v. the other day, because of the six week holidays most people working will have to pay for child care in the holidays and 6 weeks worth would set you back at the very least a grand and that's just for 1 child.
Yes my opinion is based on bias, simply put my kids don't {or didn't} go around annoying other people, I saw to that, so why should I put up with other peoples kids annoying me.
I've now got 6 weeks of feral kids roaming this estate till September.

I loved them 60 years ago :))
As long as we don't get problems I'm OK.
Mh mum had my daughter but I only worked 4 hrs a day, she wasn't allowed to run feral.
