[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You learn a lot going through a version of their day. The teachers, the families in the class, how far they have to walk/when, the timing of lunch/gym compared to the rest of the day, so many nuances that can't even be described.

I can't imagine giving up the opportunity to have perspective and context (not to mention, ability to help/suggest solutions to issues) when my kid is telling me about their day.

Honestly I try not to judge parenting but this is pretty bad.[/quote]

Your kids don’t tell you these things?  You need to see them in person to understand?  
My kids give me play by plays (usually).  Knowing what the hallways look like or what time lunch is won’t make a difference. [/quote]

To think a parent who didn't attend has the same level of understanding as one who did is delusional thinking.[/quote]

And to think that laying eyes on the teacher for 10 min and seeing the structure of the building gives you a one up is also delusional thinking. 
And, of course, another reason to think you are doing it better than those of us who don’t go. [/quote]
