That's exactly what I thought about the kids who are in our intensive session after the first class. I knew Brainhighways kids where not your normal adorable angels, and although these nine are adorable they are no angels. I have spent the last five days being kicked, bitten, slobbered on and almost puked on. Needless to say it's been eventful.
And although I know tomorrow will probably be as grim as the other days, there are nice moments and I'm defiantly learning a lot. The difference with the intensive session is that most of the families are from out of town. Unlike our regular families who dedicate themselves to an 8 week session the intensive families often don't have that level of seriousness. Several even seem to think that we can magically fix their kids in just one week! But we can't and I think the rest of the staff is getting as annoyed as I am with their attitudes.
On the bright side of things though not all families are like that, and some are just wonderful. My favorite family has three kids who are cute, well behaved and ridiculously polite. Another bright fact: how much more information I'm getting. Normally things are spread out over 8 weeks and the parents get various emails and podcasts. However, there are too many to send and expect people to read/listen to so instead a lot of it gets condensed and we talk more openly in the class about it.
Other than that I'm mostly just working on my paper which is coming together rather nicely.
Until next week......
