Wow, I bet it was hard to juggle school ...Hi Sarah,<br />Wow, I bet it was hard to juggle school and your love for showing your horses. Do you ever have any regrets missing out on so much school and the social aspect of it? Just a little personal information about myself; I missed out on my junior and senior year of high school and feel like I missed out on a lot. I had my first child when I was 17 so I got my GED and started working a fulltime job and started going to school fulltime at night to provide for her. Since then I have graduate from two colleges with an associates and bachelors in Elementary Education. I here at USA to have my teaching certificate reinstated. I had to do a lot of juggling myself. My situation was a little different from yours but I know what it feels like to have missed out on being in an actual school environment and the want to be in school. I don’t have any regrets because I did what I felt at the time was right for us. <br />I agree teachers do have a great impact on what a child learns. I don’t believe teaching should come solely from teachers in our classroom; I think parents also play a huge role in what our children learn and the success of what a child can achieve in the class. I like the fact your parents allowed you to have the experiences with your horses and to make some of your own choices about school.Great teachers should provide exposure and experience and I think that is what your parents did. Exposure and experience is what learning is all about. Doing is learning!Cassie Skidmorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07049898470598697095noreply@blogger.com
