[QUOTE="Californiablonde, post: 532498, member: 2196"] difficult child 1 goes to the boys and girls' club after school and she loves it. She has a lot of friends there and she seems to fit in just fine, despite her difficult child ways. They have an after school homework program, which is a blessing since it saves me from the homework struggles when we get home. They have tutoring and difficult child gets quite a bit of extra help from the staff members who are in charge. They also have plenty of activities to choose from. There is a cooking class, an art class, and various sports. They also have a big gym and a computer room. She loves it so much that she is planning on still going next year when she's in high school. It won't be necessary for her to have after school daycare next year but the new school has a bussing program that will take her there for free. She is choosing to go there rather than go home straight after school. I think it's great that she loves it so much. I know she is safe and well taken care of when she is there and I would much rather she be there than sitting at home by herself for a couple of hours until I get home. Hopefully next year difficult child 2 will qualify to go there too.
