The Last Hurrah!

 Much of what we learn as caregivers, teachers, and those that work with children is how to make them better for, prepare them for, and understand them in the future.  Most of becoming educated about children, and perhaps its because of their youth and newness to the world however, we cannot become side tracked and to overwhelmed to enjoy them in the present.   This class was an opportunity o enjoy them in the future.  Thai is what I accepted and enjoyed best about this process. 

I would also like to acknowledge and give so much tanks to all of my colleagues particularly, Ms. Cara-Wicks Ortega.  I would also like to acknowledge:  Puddin, Stephanie Hebdon, and
Randee Holmes, for their fantastic blogs and responses! 

I salute you all and wish you the best in your future endeavors <3

To Test or not to Test

                                                                          To Test or not to Test


I strongly feel that testing children at a young age will have a great effect on the overall child's performance in life. Emotional testing would be the most effective because it will help indefinite where the child's strengths lies in handling many aspects of life such as stress.
Kids from all over the world are tested in many different ways, in a article from express.co.uk children in Britain are for fact the most tested kids in the world testing for subjects that the child ha sent even started yet. The companies behind the tests claim to be able to predict or gage a child’s eventual brilliance based on the results. Imagine your kid taking french at the age of seven when there ideal language is English.
In my personal opinion french at age 7 is a little extremely, but back to my original  point emotional testing would be perfect.
For example promise a kid a ice cream cone at the end of the day then when the end of the day approaches tell the child that for what ever reason the ice cream cone would have to wait for tomorrow night. At that instance see how the child would respond, would it be something as simple as a quick look of disappointment then saying OK and move forward or would the kid spaze out and have motions as their life just ended. To conclude the test then come back with the same ice cream cone that was promise earlier and give it to the child. Watch the child's level of discipline with receiving the cone watch how the handling going from disappointment to now joy.Testing how one can be let down, then the mood of being surprised- Emotional testing.
Life is nothing more than emotions. How one feels about there job, there money, there love ones, is all emotional. Everyday is a roller-coaster ride of mixed opportunities that arrive daily, and its up to the individual to handle each situation according. If we can develop this mind state to children at a young perhaps crime would go down. A weak mind would not result to stealing or killing to get what they wanted. The mind-state of "I give up" would not quickly exist at all because the mind has been trained at a younger age how to handle institutions.
Maybe a lot of millionaires wouldn't  go broke because yet again at a young age your emotions where trained to handle situations with discipline -the mind state of trying hard for everything, take nothing as guaranteed, but yet be humble threw out the whole journey. I feel I overall the world would be different cause now as adults (adults that runs the worlds) emotional disciple in look forward to the ice cream cone reacting according when we don't get it but be forever grateful when at the end of the day you where able to wrap your lips around your favor ice cream favored cone.
