Yes. Meanwhile, why is a 5-yo boy being forced to sit quietly in a chair as if he were a compliant 9-yo girl? Most 5 -yo boys just are not ready for the government school routine of “shut up and obey my orders.” It takes time to break their spirit.

Mama needs to be home for her son, and son needs to have a full-time father to help him expend some of that NORMAL boy energy.

oh, and cop needs to find another line of work.

Here's a shocker for you!
I don't care if or why mom is or isn't at home, or whether or not Dad is around. I don't consider that any of my business.

I do care that my taxes go towards paying for a bloated, corrupt, and inefficient public education system that is consistently failing to fulfill their supposed government charter in our society.
Compulsory K-12 education has drifted far beyond the noble goal of providing a “free” opportunity for every minor child citizen of the USA, to obtain at least a basic level of literacy involving reading,writing, mathematics, science and history.

The K-12 compulsory education system has devolved into a bureaucracy more concerned with expanding their power, money and benefits than educating children.

Why do you think they start at age 5...

>It takes time to break their spirit.

...and continue for another 13 years?

As do the over educated people that think all children who can't perform like regimented adults should be drugged into submission.

Personally, I'd pay good money to see all the elementary school teachers and administrators be forced to sit still for 6 hours everyday, be forced to eat lunch without speaking, have no recess time and be hollered at for squirming after several hours this regimentation. Ditto for the doctors that rubber stamp the opinions of a teacher that says a child who doesn't have the attention span of an adult should be drugged.

I've seen it up close. I wouldn't be surprised if they wanted to pump soma into the a/c vents every day a la Huxley.

Parents of children with genuine problems, don't bother flaming me. What I've said about the system is still true.
