| This is a complicated one. I doubt she'd relocate, her children are here. Is anyone hearing anything? |

| Best wishes to her and her future husband. |

| I heard she is planning a long engagement. |

I doubt her kids being here would necessarily keep her here.... (Really, how much time does she spend with them now anyway??)
I hope that she soon jets her way to CA and stays there. signed, DCPS parent |

Wow, you are incredibly bitter. Dislike the job she's doing, fine. But the personal insults (how could you possibly know how much time she spends with her kids?!) are a huge reflection on the person you are. And they're the main reason why some of us tune out the Rhee haters. |

I didn't see a personal insult in that message. Have you not noticed Rhee's travel schedule? Regardless, she moved her kids and her ex-husband to DC so I don't know why she wouldn't move them again. But, it doesn't seem to be in the cards. |

| The engagement provides a graceful way out. I hope she follows her bliss. |

| I don't think it's fair to assume we know how much time she spends with her children. Does she travel more than half the time? |

How could it not be personal to take a stab at a parent for how much time they spends with their kids? It certainly isn't about her job performance. So many parents already experience so much guilt about raising their kids the best they can, you don't think it's hurtful to say something like that to them? The poster said she doubted Rhee's kids would keep her here as if she didn't care about them. I apologize to that poster if I misinterpreted. |

Another DCPS parent here. Rhee spends little time working on the issues of DCPS and much time giving speeches and appearing on major news outlets. Apparently she's on the red-eye every Thursday night too?
As for the previous poster taking a cheap shot about quality parenting time--maybe, maybe not. Just remember, Rhee started with the cheap shots. (Anyone recall the broom photo on the cover of Time magazine, or the Fast Company article?) Rhee has taken the level of discourse in DCPS to a new low. For the record, I was entranced by her the first year or so. Watching her take a difficult situation (DCPS as a whole) and making it even worse, has made me realize she is not an effective leader. That doesn't make me "ant-reform" or a "Rhee-hater." It makes me a concerned parent who wants the best for my child. |

| You all know that Rhee is not a single parent, so to make all these jabs about how she raises her kids and her travel schedule is unfair. Her kids do have a father that is active in their lives and in spite of being divorced from Rhee moved here to DC with them. |

It's none of your business how much time she spends on her kids. I think it's great that she's found someone. Congrats, Michelle!! |

| We don't like Michelle Rhee because as women we cannot stand the idea of someone having it all -- a driven, accomplished, feted wunderkind who did not sacrifice her career for the kids who wears great shoes, and to top it all off, just might be having hot sex with a guy who is crazy about her in her spare time. We wish we had half the guts. |

| PP thanks. We wouldn't be going after a man like this. |

| Ok, since you put it that way, now I hate her. |
