First, when it comes to school, will bringing him this early affect his view of school? What concept of school would we build in Mateo if he sees so much of it even before he’s old enough to attend classes? Will this effectively take away the anticipation for the first day of school?

Second, since Mateo spends as much time with our co-teachers as we do, then there’s a huge possibility that he might just grow up treating them like regular aunties and uncles. How then will this affect his view of his teachers?

Third, because andrea and I are both teaching, we have no idea how Mateo will take to a household of educators. Is this going to make him like schooling more or would it push him to detest it? Also, on our part, when do we start being teachers to him instead of parents and when do we become parents instead of teachers? Will he be able to recognize the difference?

It seems like the more he grows, the more complicated parenting gets. And the fact that we’re teaching and children spend most of their waking time in school does not make things any easier.
