[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't believe in pretending that each kid has the same needs. Kids should know we treat them as unique individuals... with different needs.[/quote]

There is a good saying about that: "Fair does not mean giving each child the same thing. Fair means giving each child what she needs."[/quote]

But all these kids needed a college education.  D1 got it.  D2 got half.  D3 got none.  Unfair.[/quote]

D3 got expensive private school and flunked out. Parents were not rich to begin with. Did their best with each one, given their financial picture at that time and that particular kid's apparent abilities. Parents didn't make her squander the high school opportunity. [/quote]

A 15 year old doesn’t get opportunity.  DCUM apologizes for 25 year olds and wants to hang blame on a kid?  Weird.[/quote]

The ageism (I don't know what else to call it) on this board amazes me more than almost anything... is 18 an adult or not?  is 15?  is 27?  You can find evidence for/against each all over the place here.[/quote]
