The Taekwondo Class from ...

So Justice took a trial Taekwondo class. I am really looking for things to keep him busy, while allowing him to work on following directions and staying on task. This class, much like the soccer teams of our past, was humiliating for me. First of all, all 20 of the other kids were silently watching their "Master" and performing forward kicks. Not Justice, everytime the Master asked them to kick he yelled out, "Teacher, are we doing Karate now?" The Master ignored him everytime yet, Justice continuted to yell out the Karate question with every kick. Need I remind you, it was NOT a Karate class, it was Taekwondo!



Then he became fixated on the uniform. Because it was a trial class, he did not have one. After the first 5 minutes, he decided he really wanted one. With every activity he would yell across the gallery at me, "Momma, I want a white shirt." I would remind him he would get one the next time, and he would go back to what he was doing. Then the activity would change and he would call out to me again. Humiliating I tell you!
