Take your kids to work day...

Someone explain to me why this is a good idea...

LOL

*shakes head* I KNOW it CAN BE a good idea. I mean it does give kids a chance to see what their parents do. To have an experience of the 'work place'...but in a place like where I work, it can really wreak havoc. First of all it's not always a good idea, in a place where there are so many sick people around. Especially for those sick people. And though we did try to do a good job of keeping the kids occupied it can prove to be a difficult to nearly impossible task at times...

The older kids got to have some really interesting experiences...like watching surgery. I mean that is incredibly cool. But the younger kids got bored pretty easily. Who could blame them - work can be grinding and dull. But perhaps that's the lesson we are trying to teach? Perhaps bring your kids to work day should only apply when your parents do things like skydive, or work in a circus.

I do have an idea. How about a national 'Take your parents to school day'? NOw THERE'S a suggestion. Make those teachers sweat a little eh?
