Well, good for you.

The lesson in this is that I don't need to needlessly put my children through hell just because I went through hell and was "better" for it.

I wasn't better for it.

Well, good for you.

See my 587...I, too, applaud home schooling.

Bump that!

"Better" how, anyway? Maybe in a "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" sense, but you could say that about surviving cancer, too. Wouldn't it be better not to be sick in the first place?

I wouldn't send a child I hated to middle school, public or private ... and I don't have any children I hate!
