“Isn’t that what PARENTS are for?
I’m SURE that if PHYSICAL signs of child abuse is found on those children; your wife is REQUIRED to notify authorities.
Why isn’t the lack of early training by parents ALSO considered child abuse?
We keep tending the cowbirds eggs and when they hatch, they push the legitimate nestlings out, thereby taking all the resources of the foster (foisted upon) nest builders.”
Hey, I hear ya...
I won’t argue with the notion that parents should step up and take care of their child’s education. However, who gets punished in the end? It’s the kids.
I would love it if we fixed our K-12 system so that we wouldn’t have a need for pre-k. That’s just not a reality. My wife’s students were better off at the end of the year than they would have been if they hadn’t taken the pre-k program.
Side note: The Georgia Pre-k program is lottery-funded, just like the Hope Scholarship. I would like to see what Obama has in mind as far as funding pre-k on a national level.
The 'problem' lies MUCH deeper than the schools.
You will NEVER find the word SIN anywhere in M EDIA these days.
EVIL - maybe - but SIN??
Gimme a break.
My wifes students were better off at the end of the year than they would have been if they hadnt taken the pre-k program.
And, your wife would have a LOT less of them IN the 'program'; if we did not SUBSIDIZE the creation of them!
It would have a lot more funds if the taxes on prostitution and marijuana sales were used as well.
At least the kid's parents ARE paying for some of it after all!
