All this time I thought you were just trying to balance your budget and here you are saving the world. Jackie’s job sounds like a lot of fun!

I think that the public school system absolutely has to offer every student a great education. And reading this particular government nonsense makes me – again – happy I homeschool.

We should all be thankful we are choosing among a lot of very good public schools. Minneapolis has a lot of great schools now… they will still have great schools when all of the wrangling is done. Nobody’s children deserve more opportunities than anyone else’s.

I think that sometimes having kids can make you more insular, more concerned about protecting your own against the world. Good for you and the other parents who remain concerned about educating everybody’s kids.

I do love that these hard economic times are forcing issues to the surface that are otherwise muted by money.
