I read the story in today's Shreveport Times about a camp available for kids beginning at midnight where they could learn math and work out with weights. The article really never sunk into my thick skull, unitl a friend called and asked if I had read the piece.
What in the world are kids doing up at midnight, even in the summer? And to be on the street at that time is nothing short of asking for trouble from a 360 degree angle.
Call me old fashioned, but even during the summer, kids need to be under their own roof with a mama and daddy there with them at the bewitching hour.
Whatever happened to moms and dads sitting down to help their kids with math?
Oh well, they built that $3 million gym for a student population of just over 400. I guess they might as well try something--but at midnight?
