Here's an idea: Christmas vacation can be optionally only one week long. Let the teachers keep their breaks, because they deserve them, but for families who (ahem) need their kids to return to school a bit earlier, have an option where anyone up for student teaching for the semester gets pro-rated in by taking students for the second week.
At this point I'd be willing to pay for it, myself.
And this is not even remotely a joke.
Yesterday, B:
1. stole cookies, which is not a big deal normally, but in a house of 3 other kids who make it their business to know/rat on/complain about not getting any themselves, this was an issue.
2. smacked Vin, probably 35 times throughout the day.
3. whined, a lot.
4. elected not to take her nap, encouraging (by volume) her brother to do the same.
5. thought it would be a good idea to sponge paint WITH BUTTER.
6. decided to clean the tub WITH THREE DIFFERENT B&B CHRISTMAS-SCENTED HANDSOAPS. It's still a goddamned slippery mess in there, but smells lovely.
