Comment on The Sidewalk by theresa

well that’s frustrating! I’ve got my own sidewalk story from yesterday, must be going around. Mine, though, is about a LACK of sidewalk! AJ just started middle school, and somehow the transportation office for the district thinks that it’s a good idea to drop all the kids in our neighborhood off 5 blocks up on a main road, with no sidewalks. (Instead of at the corner of the cross street that actually leads down to all the blocks that these kids live on. which they drive past after they drop the kids off 5 blocks before, and then make them schlep down this insanely busy road, with NO SIDEWALKS!)

Comment on Why We Homeschool by Barbara McCall

Education has changed a lot since you were a child. I doubt if your children would have a public school experience today that was similar to either your experience or Steve’s.
You already know that my three young grandchildren are attending private nursery school and public elementary school. We couldn’t be more pleased. Claire, our kindergarten grandchild who is reading at the third grade level, is appropriately challenged and happy to be with her peer group. The two (age 2 and 3) who attend Preschool for the Arts are having a wonderful experience. The music and art programs would be entirely beyond our ability to replicate at home….and we are not idiots! Everyone in our family has at doctorate in some field. I have a couple of degrees in education.
Home school if you want. But there are other options that provide wonderful opportunities for children.
