[quote=Anonymous]I don't get the posters who are pouring cold water over the Ron Brown idea, saying it won't fix anything for these children until we fix their parents. They appear to come from both the liberal side and the conservative side. We don't have an answer for fixing the parents, but Ron Brown is a promising idea for making life better for the kids and the kids they may some day have. I am all for giving it a good chance and remaining open to possible success. Not particularly relevant, but am the mother of a student who pretty much treated her DCPS high school as optional as soon as she turned 18. The principal told her she had the worst attendance record of anyone in the school. I had no idea. Turned out she had a debilitating illness that took a while to figure out. DCPS was not our friend in trying to make alternative arrangements for a degree in a way that would accommodate her illness, so she ended up with a GED instead.[/quote]
