Now that the kids are all in school. I would like to work but I don't really think I would be good at it anymore. LOL. Too old to do what someone else wants, their way! Anyway, I thought to myself what do I like to do? What am I good at? The answer to both is cooking. And everyone else I know seems to hate to cook. So I thought I could list about 40 different food items and let people pick what they want to eat. Tell (email) them the groceries they would need to buy, then I would go to their house while they were at work and make their dinner. Has anyone ever heard of this? My friends seem to think it is a great idea. I'm going to do a practice run an them for the next couple of weeks to see how it all works. I was thinking to charge. $20 for a day, $80 if you go the week, and $300 with a loaf of homemade bread and a dessert per week thrown in if you go the month

I think it's a great idea! That's how my cousin got started in her business. She started out housecleaning, and then started making dinners for the people. Word spread, and she ended up opening her own restaurant and catering company!

Good luck, it can work!

After school grades 1 to 7. Getting up before kids so breakfast to ready and on the table. Making sure teeth are brushed,hair combed, clothes in order and books. After school homework is done, any messes are cleaned up and snack time. Some play time inside or outside. Cook dinner,clean up. kids get clothes ready for next day. Have a snack. Give kids a bath and put on pajama. Are there other parents doing the same thing? Or do the kids do it for themselves? Seems like a kid staying up until 11 pm and getting up at 7 am doesn't get enough sleep and when they wake up maybe too tried to eat breakfast. With kids up until 11 pm than parents, you are up later and still are getting up before or with the kids? I am not saying anyone is doing bad, I really just trying to see what other people are doing and how?

I am up much later then my children, ages 12, 10, and 2. My alarm clock goes off at 6 am. Then I am off to get the 2 oldest up. They get dressed and meet me in the kitchen. While I make lunches they make thier own breakfast. Lunches ready they put them in backpacks and head up to brush teeth..If baby is awake one of us will bring her down. The 2 oldest then have 15 mins to play with baby or read or chat with mom and then they are off to the bus at 7 am. The rest of the day is a tornado of dealing with daily care of a 2 year old and any house hold things that need to be done…mainly cleaning. Baby down to nap form 1-3 and that is my time to eat lunch and mop any floors and make any phone calls that require no noise. I alos like to stop and breath at those meoments as they are mine and some of the only quiet time I get to myself. 3pm baby awake start snack for big kids home at 3:30. Depending on the sports schedule, we eat snack and do home work. Then off to sports and hopefully I have started a crockpot of dinner…otherwise it is take out (We like the grocery store chicken and sides…feels like homemade and better than MdDonalds) Back home and it is time for showers, finsih homework and if there is time TV. Baby in bed at 8 or 8:30 big kids in bed by 9. Clean up, finish laundry, talk with husband that has just gotten home, maybe just maybe read a book and watch the news. Then before I know it is tis 11pm and I need to decide if I am going to do anything else or go to bed.We are busy and we look forward to the weekend. As we do very little then. I prefer it that way.

Should all schools come with swimming pools and gyms?

Should parents make sure their children get at least 2 hours exercise a day?

Should parents cook proper home cooked meals?

Should schools/parents teach kids how to cook?

Parents preparing proper meals and school lunches. As well as only giving sweets/snacks the odd time.

Children should be involved in a sport activity such as swimming (all kids should know how to anyway), football, horse riding etc Something that the child enjoys, there is no point forcing them to do what they don’t like.

Parents should encourage their children to play outside. Or if need be foot them outside the door.

Take aways and fast food should only be eaten on rare occasions

I ask this because I stay home in the summer and I can just go and get anything I want out of the fridge but sometimes I get lazy and I don't feel like cooking so I just don't eat. During the school year I can get whatever I want for just some money during lunch but I also play on school sport teams. So I was wondering if kids gain more weight during the summer or during the school year.

definitely during the summer i gain like, at least 8 pounds, and then i lose it during the school year. I'm more active during the school year, and i eat a LOT, whether its summer or school year, but probably more in the summer, because we have barbecues and get togethers at least once a week, so another opportunity to overeat, and then, i eat when i have nothing else to do.

With all that eating, i would think i would be overweight.

is their a site i can go to? i don't think they are in the CPS system. they might attend a suburban school in cook or depage county

while they are waiting to be adopted those places have their own school, they don't let waiting kids to be adopted to go to regular schools.

once they are adopted they go wherever their new parents live.

and no there's not a web site, once you decide to give your child in adoption, leave her/him alone, don't disturb him/her more emotionally than what you have already have
