-=> Quoting Zaynab Richmond to Regina Finan <=-
 ZR> Prior thoughts, found on this echo from Regina Finan 
 ZR> to Chris Gilliland on 09-16-96  05:38:
 
 RF> I have also found that if you have more than one child the others are
 RF> so will to help each other.  
 ZR> This is true... Cimeron helps Aaron with his work so often that I've
 ZR> taken to calling her my "teacher's aide". :)  She likes that.
 
 RF> Plus what lack of social life.  The
 RF> social life I have found my kids to get in school is copying the bad
 RF> behavior of some of the other children.  
 ZR> This is so true... for instance name-calling and potty-talk... that's
 ZR> what Cimeron brought home from school last year and I haven't been
 ZR> able to get these bad elements out of our homelife consistently since
 ZR> then. :( 
 ZR> When people talk about "socialization", this is what I think of.
 When they get older like 11 or so the talk starts on sex.  These kids
 do not know what they are talking about and do the giggling act.  But
 the talk can get pretty vicious.  I heard it one day and that is what
 made my final decision last year.
