Literature in the ancient world was inextricably bounded up with social life. We know for instance that poetry was part of religious ritual, rites and collective history. In other words, literature had a social function in the ancient world whose dominant form was poetry, which communicated to the community various aspects of its tradition and history. But what purpose does it serve to our present age, when we can read history from books and learn about the world around us through the media? The answer to this question lies in the way we should receive and look at writings.

Children’s books are not always about the words and the morals. Sometimes children’s books are about the illustration. Contrary to popular belief, most children’s book illustrators are actually hired by the publishing company rather than the author of the book. Sometimes this can be upsetting for prospective children’s book writers that really wanted to illustrate their book according to their own visions. Sadly, most publishers have artists they already like to use.

Is there a special teacher who maybe has taught several of your children? I remember attending a School Board Meeting where a long term dynamic teacher in our School District was presenting… he started off by pointing at each board member and mentioning his (or her) child or children, when the child (or children) had been in his class (many were currently past college) and special memories about them. Wow! What an impact. What was more, he followed them through their academics since he knew them! FYI, he taught elementary, but he could tell you what happened in their high school years!

Anyhow, now imagine such a person was going into retirement… would you want to make that send off something super special? Sure you would! Now, if that teacher had a special hobby or interest, a perfect gift might be a tour of a place that he (or she) might want to visit… if they knew it was possible.

When I was growing up, I used to always look forward to playing educational games. My favorite ones were the educational board games. I was always pretty good at Scrabble. I was a very literate kid, and sometimes I could even beat the grown ups. At the time, I thought I was hot stuff. In retrospect I understand that they might have been letting me win, but I think I still could have given them a run for their money.

Everyone who went to high school is familiar with this social caste group. Did you belong or were you one of the so-called outcasts? There are so many interesting and talented kids in every high school who are excluded from the popularity contests which high school cliques embrace. Generally, these kids feel rejected, believing they just aren’t good enough to garner the attention of these paragons.

The high school clique phenomenon is age-related and a developmental phase. When kids are little, parents generally try to teach their kids to get along with others. However, when the child reaches high school age, some of these same parents encourage this exclusivity, wanting their child to be amongst the popular ones. Do they suppose it’s now better to belong to a high school clique, thus ensuring social standing amongst their peers? It makes you wonder, what happened to the getting-along teachings? Sometimes, parents are simply reliving their own high school experience of being on the outside.

Raising teens in general can be difficult, but raising an adolescent with ADHD can be quite the task. This is because teens with ADHD are less emotionally mature than their peers. That means they are still going through the mental, physical and emotional changes of adolescence but they are not as less ready to deal with it than other kids their age. In other words, adolescence will be even harder for them to face. Most of the rules of how to raise a teen will still apply for your child, but some modifications will need to be made for their ADHD.
