if i were the headmaster of this school, i would have offered the woman a job at the school as well as free tuition. at my kids school, stay at home moms are always easing their way back into the workforce with jobs as aides, some of them go back to school for teaching degrees etc. They work in the office, some moms work as the school nurses.

as to me quitting a highpaying job for my PRIDE, pride is not at issue here. I would never have engaged in stripping as a living (and not because of my looks either, by the way). i would work as a cleaning lady cleaning toilets, and maybe several shifts per day, so that i could send my kids to school somewhere that would reinforce my values, and it is MY VALUES not my PRIDE that would have me NOT STRIPPING for a living.

Let me see if I've got this straight; this woman isn't good enough to have her child go to school there, but she is good enough to work there herself?

But are any of those women former strippers?

This little girl is in kindergarten. What, pray tell, would you do with a child this young while you're working around the clock? Consider, this child is probably in school for four hours at a time. Meanwhile you're working around harsh chemicals and heavy equipment (such as floor buffers, clothes press, etc) in a job that offers barely more than minimum wage with no benefits and no childcare. Who is going to take care of your child while you're working and she's not in school? How can you be a mother to her when the only time you have together is the only time you have to sleep?

And BTW, God bless you for thinking you could actually afford to live AND send your child to private school on the money you would make as a cleaning woman.
