[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think most people couldn't handle the amount of planning needed to teach middle and high school, plus work full time and run a family. If you can, more power to you.[/quote]

Spoken like a teacher, or SAHM.  Lots of us have demanding jobs and still manage to run a family. Oh, and I don't get three months off a years and spring breaks. While teachers are off, I have to juggle even more balls and work extra hours to catch up for covering.  [/quote]

What a twat you are, 2nd PP.      Most D.C. couples with classic DC jobs don't likely have the bandwith to simultaneously 
1) work 40+ hours a week, AND
2) teach high school AND
3) teach middle school AND
4) manage / run a family with 3+ kids

Doesn't matter if they dig ditches for a living 40 hours a week off-site or cure lung cancer at NIH 40 hours a week off-site.  The principle is the same.   It's not easy to do 3 jobs totalling 70-80 hours a week and [u]do them well[/u], year after year.    Kudos for the PP who is doing this and pulling it off[/quote]

Not a fan of PP slinging "twat", but I agree with her.  The disparagement of teachers, SAHMs, and anyone else who doesn't hold a "demanding job" (??!!) is a bit of an eye-brow raiser.  (I'm not going to the first to call you a clueless bitch, but I'm also not going to defend you when everyone else does.)

The path to success as a group (and if a school isn't a group, then what is?) involves an outreach ability you just don't understand.

That's too bad.  You obviously feel entitled to something special for your snowflake, and have no idea how to facilitate it.  Poor snowflake.   :(
