Control-freak me figured I'd better be there!! It's true that here in France, they seem to take small children everywhere! And regarding the iPhone, it's amazing to see babies practically who do a better job of scrolling from photo to photo than some adults... They learn quickly...Adriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00055999700713873264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079360024084742972.post-76365911474326303422013-10-15T01:29:38.076-07:002013-10-15T01:29:38.076-07:00Recounting it all afterwards, it sounds all very f...Recounting it all afterwards, it sounds all very funny, but I am sure it was somewhat alarming at the time. I am impressed at how brave you are to take on that role, they take children out to cultural events right from a young age here which is brilliant, but they also get a bit of a life lesson in the process, being exposed to the greater world that many of them won't yet have been exposed to. For sure, they will likely never forget it, and neither will you . :) Being about kids is an eyeopener, as I mentioned to you yesterday discovering my 11 year old's friend were all texting the French President complaining about losing 2 weeks from their summer holidays! One of my French students whose son is only in CP (1st yr primary) is already telling his Mum he is going to have an iPhone when he gets to college, the things they learn at school!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079360024084742972.post-11007110927327561982013-10-15T00:32:56.113-07:002013-10-15T00:32:56.113-07:00Yes, it is fun, and kind of funny to listen to the...Yes, it is fun, and kind of funny to listen to the comments the kids make...

But I could tell you about the child who was sick over the sandwiches......Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
