just more info on kids and the internet

Last night, Lucy told me she wanted to do someone homework for her homeroom class.  "We're studying the life cycle of a frog, and I need to do a report on it, Mom.  I have to get it done tonight."
 
She went on:  "Well, it's not actually homework.  I just want to do it."
 
How my heart burst with pride for my over-achieving, studious girl!   We opened up Google and found a great resource for her unnecessary report.  She copied down notes, printed out a picture for the cover, and was pleased as punch with herself.  So was I. 
 
This morning, I got an email from her homeroom teacher.   "The mating habits of frogs???  This is my laugh for the week!"
 
And then I went back to our great resource, and realized just how descriptive it was.
