I was asked the following by Jessica “Tell everyone what you would do if you were on Wife(ur, Kid)Swap! What qualities about your family would you want others to share in?” It seems that ALOT of HSBers are being asked to appear on the show. And they have respectfully declined.
We do occasionally watch the ABC show. And the homeschooling family is portrayed as wackos most of the time.
First off I would not go on the show. I would not want to put my family in that predicament where they would have to follow someone else’s rules. If I was a wife on the show: For the first week, which would be the home rules, I would follow them completely unless it went against my beliefs or was harmful to me!! For the second week, which would be my rules week, I would not enforce my beliefs on the family. I would just try to show them the GREAT aspects of what I do. If their kids were in the pss, I would not take them out and homeschool them. But I would help them with their homework and show them a way that I teach my children, so that they got an aspect of what homeschooling is. I would make dinner time a special time for the family to get together. I would help them start Creative Memories albums, so that they may safely preserve their precious photos. I would show them what a real mother and wife is.
If I was a young adult on the show: For the first week, which would be the home rules, I would follow them completely unless it went against my beliefs or was harmful to me!! For the second week, which would be my rules week, I would stay home and do my schooling. I would help out the mother any way I could. I would encourage the kids to be modest and helpful. I would show them that it is best to spend a lot of time with your family. (blood is thicker than water) I would do what I normally do at home. I would show them what a real daughter is.
Well I hope that is what you wanted Jessica!! I did what I thought would be best!! ©AmandaDixon2006
