Are you glad and relieved that the school holidays are over and the kids are back in school?

Question

My grand children and even great grand children came for two weeks out of their school holiday to visit with me, and Boy, am I glad that they are all back in school?

I love them to bits, but had to stand ready 24/7 for them, especially the little ones... Two aged 4 and 3 and one aged 15 months...

The older ones were less of a bother, but then again, they ate me out of house and home....What great appitites these teenagers have...

Thank God for school terms when we can get on with living our own lives.

Answer 1

No, I enjoy school holidays, I get to drop my son off at my mothers house every morning, a 2 minute drive and in the process save myself having to drive on the highway to drop my son at his school and usually also get a traditional English breakfast.

I'm sure my mother is glad when the holidays are over though, I guess she's in the same boat as yourself.

Answer 2

No we only had 2 weeks holiday and it was not enough, I miss my kids when they are in school. Shame feel so sorry for them when they have to wake up so early in the mornings and get up in the freezing cold.

Answer 3

I think it gives most parents a much needed break, and it keeps the kids busy when they are back at school after the holidays  - but brace yourself, because December is still ahead

Answer 4

Yeah, but there is lots of traffic now!

Answer 5

what part of the world are you from.?here in the UK they start their holidays in 2wks time.

Answer 6

Got no kids... actually preffered them out of school... no traffic, so I could get up an hour later.
