I wasn't sure where I should put this, so since education has become a bit of a political issue, I guess this is as good as anywhere.
While in my doctors waiting room yesterday I started chatting up the lady sitting on the other side of the room, as we watched some Hollywood bimbo choose which man she'd like to...I dunno'...like.
First, I was surprised that of the offerings, there were no females for her to choose.
I digress...the point is, I'm chatting up this educator, and how education has gone the way of the dinosaur. She was telling me that in order to fail a student, the process makes terminating a civilian employee look like a walk in the park.
When I told her that we would be home schooling the Pickle, she said that is the best thing a parent can do for their kids right now. Seriously. That's what she told me. None of the faux support that you get from so many educators, but a woman who is sitting right in front of me saying that the system is so broken, that she wouldn't send her own kids (if she had any) to public school.
