So superficiality rules at school? Nice to see that the right values are being taught in schools!
Children are taught about lots of things in school. Superficiality isn't one of them! Anyway, I bet you've had the odd peek at those rich lists!
I love the rich lists.
I didn't mean to be passing judgement - just observing. These are the questions I'd probably ask as well!
I was actually referring to the previous blogger's comments. My point was that if children appear to have superficial values they won't have got them from school. Also I think most people are interested in what other people earn - especially celebrities. Kids just haven't learned to distinguish between appropriate and inappropriate questions.
I think about three of them got asked when you came to my school. And I think the car one was asked in about five different ways.
