I regret to say that my very own mother, RIP, had a strong attitude about defending her righteous children against the wrongs of the school system. I picked this up as a young child. I never got into any significant trouble in school, but I'd have been better off if I had not gone through the whole experience with a bit of a cocky attitude toward teachers and the whole school scene.
I'd put my own child, somehow, somewhere, into a school that I respected and then make it clear that the school was in charge. I am with you!
You had me cryin' on that Pit bull thread yesterday.
Not only did I observe my children's friends, aquaintences, and neighbors raising their kids, and what and where they are today, but my mom always defended her youngest, the only boy, all the time. He's 59 years old and still a brat!
