[quote=Anonymous]I am 23:18 here, and thanks to everyone defending me against those super-harsh McCain attacks!  I am so deeply offended by that...but seriously, I have been compared to worse, so I will take it.

We are awash in this area with wonderful schools, great teachers, bright parents, lovely facilities.  It is truly an embarrassment of riches.  I have friends in parts of this country who would give their eye teeth for the half of the choices we have.  But this idea of top schools is all bunk.  I will admit there are schools that are not so hot, but largely, they all do a nice job.  Kids with ADD, maybe not so much with Montessori.  Kids with shyness can THRIVE in montessori.  Some kids learn to read early.  Some don't.  I am certainly not worried about it.  A bigger predictor of how well your kid will do it life is how genuinely you pay attention to them.  These schools are only as good as the effort paid from your end...and that remains true for the next 14 years.  Yes, the kid should be taking more responsibility as they older, but YOUR involvement is what makes a kid great, not the school or the curriculum or the philosophy or any of it.  It is like the peanuts teacher if you are not emotionally connected to your kid.

So GUYS, let's chill, support one another's decisions, and do the best we can!  Now, where is my Joe the Plumber shirt.[/quote]
