We were only three mornings into the semester, when my child came home complaining about the heat in school; She plopped her backside down onto a chair, dropped her bookbag onto the floor, & looked like the last Rosa summer.
She complained & asked me how long before fall arrives? I laughed & told her that Summer wasn’t even over yet, & she had to suck it up.
She told me the air-conditioning had already been turned off, & she was sure that they had heat coming up through the air vents already. After shaking my head & laughing, which drew some easily dirty looks my way, I assured her the heat was not on yet. After a couple of groans & winds, she told me she knew that, however that is how sizzling it was in the school. She wanted me to call the superintendent & tell them they had to turn on the air conditioner because it was affecting the health of the children. She held up her hand & told me she didn’t want any stories about how they didn’t have air conditioner in the schools when I went to school. She said she was pampered by the school & home having perfect air conditioner, & I’m not still having it on was affecting her mind & attitude. She was spoiled all right, however it wasn’t because of having air conditioner all the time. She was pampered & spoiled, however only because her daddy offered her everything she wanted, including her own temperature control in her bedroom & a heated bathroom linked to it..
