[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Clearly it is of no concern to anyone. The kids whose parents can afford private school tuition or to hire a MCPS teacher on LOA for their POD can get education this year. The kids whose [b]parents are educated and SAH/can work from home will get somewhat of an education[/b]. The rest will get nothing and noone cares.[/quote] The hell do you mean by that?! Somewhat?! FU![/quote] NP. I don’t understand why you took such[b] umbrage[/b] to that post. I’m educated, so I can somewhat teach my kids, but I’m not a trained teacher or familiar with [b]pedagogy, [/b]so I probably won’t be as effective as a real teacher would be. PP’s comment makes sense to me. Is it the SAH piece? It seems to reason that families with a SAHP, or parents with very flexible jobs, will have an easier time managing their children’s access to MCPS classes and/or providing their own learning opportunities. You may not like the reality pointed out in the PP, but it seems [b]logical [/b]and hardly something to get really upset about.[/quote] If you know these words and understand their meanings, I'm pretty sure you can figure out how to keep your child's brain from turning to mush. [/quote] That’s my point. That’s what the PP I first responded to said and I didn’t understand why some other poster took such offense.[/quote] So how does a family with two parents who work essential jobs outside the home accomplish this? Both jobs are required to pay the bills, both jobs hours basically 8am-5/6pm. Children are 1st and 2nd grade. New to area with no family to help.[/quote]
