Did you read Lucky9teen’s first post. She came out guns blazing. We responded in kind.
Actually, you didn't respond in kind at all. If you read her post carefully, as I have, she is probably fairly jealous of the time you and others get to spend with her children. It might have been polite, and yes, Christian for you to encourage her to look at other ways that she could use the few hours she has with her children rather than deal a sharp retort from someone who has what she would like to have.
A soft answer turneth away wrath......She asked for help in an oblique fashion, what she got was anger, accusations, and more guilt piled on the back of someone struggling already.
I hope you are pleased with yourself for 'responding in kind' and adding to the burden of an overworked, overwrought mother.
I think what got to me was a poster asking if Lucky9teen also expected her housing and food to come from the government.I found that a bit over the top.
That said,I’m fairly neutral on schooling since I think most of the values come from the home whether the child attends public,private,parochial,or is home-schooled. All can be good.
I also understand the concern over revisionist history. Three of my grandchildren attend public school in an ultra liberal town here in MA and they know who Harriet Tubman is but know nothing about Thomas Jefferson.Drives me nuts but I do my best to let them know SOMETHING about the founding of this wonderful country.
I wish you all well for the rest of the school year.
She did come out with gun blazing and your reading comprehension is excellent and completely on target.
Don't apologize or allow trolls to push the guilt button.
