    Oh and if you could make a start on my assignment
    "Even young children can be involved in decision making in the family and in schools. Use the course materials to illustrate how children can be involved and also why involvement might be difficult"

    My essay -

    Young children should NOT be involved in decision making in the family. However, it is inevitable that they are. It starts with them choosing their own clothes to wear to nursery, and you feel you have to explain to everyone you meet that its not your choice for them to wear the bloody awful jumper.

    It ends with them telling YOU what wear......

    I rest my case!

    I wonder how many other high street stores will go under in the next couple of months. Its quite frightening really

    I would expect that quite a few will since Christmas is often the only time of year they make money.

    That is hillarious and SO true...in fact that is exactly how it is in my house DD dictating to me what I should wear (would be head to toe in pink if she had her way all the time)

    Now just need to pad it out a bit to make it up to 1000 words ;)
