My middle son was at the local pool today. He said "Hey, mom...Do you know what I heard a lot of parents saying at the pool today? - They said they are so happy their kids are going back to school."
I think he was offended :). I assured him thatI am quite happy he isn't going and that I never did like sending them because I enjoy being with them.
Why don't people like being with their children?

Bless him, I hope you pointed out how very fortunate he is to have a wonderful mother who enjoys being with him! What a blessing! I don't understand why some people don't like being with their children either. And they had them because?
I was at a Family Child Care providers meeting last week and all the daycare providers were talking about how happy they are that school is back in session, because their kids as well as the daycare kids were gone during the day. I thought "these guys should really get new jobs if they can't even stand to be around their own children." I miss my children when they are away. Haley (12 at the time) went to visit my Mom and Dad for 3 days at Thanksgiving and I missed her so much my husband said that she was never allowed to leave the house again.
But there is nothing wrong with those parents. It is we who have a problem - we can't let go - need to let them grow up - they need to learn to be away from mommy(at age 4 for a huge part of their little lives) - need to be around kids allll day long - blah - blah blah.
