[quote:Anonymous Coward 3756790:MV8xNTg3OTA4XzM1MDM0MDg5XzQyOTM4NkUy] [quote:Anonymous Coward 3756790:MV8xNTg3OTA4XzM1MDMzNzg2XzRBQjRCNTRG] [quote:Anonymous Coward 1496915:MV8xNTg3OTA4XzI2MjQxNTA5X0I5RjU1OTJC] Children will eat alternative meats when hungry, but they will also eat things they're not used to like lamb or deer or rabbit when you act as if it is perfectly normal. They're conditioned by other children, but in the absence of schools, they'll look to your response. I can tell you honestly and from experience that I've no trouble feeding many many children alternative meat like lamb when they were conditioned to eating it as if it were the most ordinary meal. Kids will become very bored without cell phones, the Internet, TV, electronic games, DVDs, etc. Kids are far more hungry for your attention though, and if you'll find time to play games with them, exercise together,and really talk, that boredom will pass. [/quote] LAMB is an "alternative meat"?! [/quote] For that matter, you consider deer and rabbit to be alternative meats? Where the hell do you live...inside a Wal-Mart? [/quote]

There are many free homeschooling sites with pdf files. It would be great to have them just in case there are issues.
Get medications that your kids need. See if your doctor will prescribe 3 months supplies for them.
Get some presents tomorrow for Christmas. Little gifts that you could give out not only then, but throughout the year as incentives. They'll really appreciate them.
Children can thrive in the woods as long as they have calm parents. They cannot keep up with your pace up and down tails. You've got to plan adequately if you do have to walk some.
Kids are used to incorrectly using a backpack since kids at school wear them in the wrong fashion, which adds too much stress to their lower back. You'll have to reteach them how to buckle it properly and position it higher than they used to wearing it.
Try to make gathering wood into a game. Teach them as much about nature as possible. Being quiet is as important as talking.
Kids love open fires. Tell stories. It can simply be times when they did wonderful things when they were younger. They love hearing how much you love and adore them. Even teens.
Hug and kiss them often. Be generous with your affection. Lavish it on them
