She's doing a report on beavers for school, and taking all her information from the web, printing stuff off and downloading pics. In any case, she started out really frustrated about three hours ago. We were, like, yelling at each other. But as she began doing the work and asking questions, getting answers from the web and from me, which sometimes she rejected out-of-hand then had to take it back, but being loved through it all anyway by mom (that's me), her confidence built. And now, she's enthusiastic about corroborating information (you have to be careful about your sources!) and getting more, and having ... shhhssshh, don't tell anyone ... fun.... little bum. Kids. What a challenge ... :)
