My children were in full blown drama mode like I have not ever seen them before!

Picture an 8 yr old boy, face screwed up in a rictus, tears flying from his face everytime he shook his head, beating one hand against the table and crying out "How could he?!"

I thought I was watching Wuthering Heights or something with the manly grief of deep betrayal so out of style these days. Only... on an 8 year old.



And before you ask, no, I still don't really know what happened. *Puzzled.* Co-teacher and I were alternatedly in and out of the room during the relevant actions -- we're going to compare notes tonight Monday. The kids did seem to be on healed terms by the end of the day, though.

I love this post just for that phrase.

manly grief of deep betrayal.

I'm quite curious to talk with you more about teaching sometime soon when I'm not at EC for five billion different things at the same time.
