Thanks you guys for your responses.
I appreciate your response, GD, as I was speaking to someone who said they new a Holocaust survivor and that they felt this was age appropriate and I kept thinking she forgot what it was like to be 12...So, I am glad to hear you say, if I am careful about what we do, he will be alright.
Like Alex, I really had/have my concerns. Mostly I worry the subject won't be respected and that will make the trip a waste. That is why I am going with them. {and I hate to ride the bus with a bunch of kids!!!} I worry at their age their biggest concern is one another.
flippyshark~ That is it, I had 'number' in my head but I couldn't figure it out. And, sadly, it wasn't my son in your pictures.
That would have been swell. Those pictures showed a lot of tolerance for knuckleheadness!!! {kidding!! I'm just jealous!}
Oh, I will have to go to that site! I've been working too many hours. {this is my argument against my working....
}
I wish they did serve food. I worry what we are going to have for lunch.
I wanted to go to Olvera Street but was told it isn't close...
I just asked The Boy if he'd finished reading the book, he said no. I asked him what he knew about the Holocaust and he said he knew the Jews were tortured and killed by Hitler because he wanted people to be just like him.
So, yeah, I have work to do with him. He seemed very open to it, when I told him that there was much more and that I wanted to study it before our trip he was quite agreeable.
Thanks you guys for your opinions. I do understand your statement in the sense it was given. I don't think like iSm, all I can think of is George Carlin and 'Why do you drive on a Parkway and park in a driveway?' and any of his other comparisons...
Keep the ideas/opinions coming, I find this quite intersting.
