Parental involvement
 

I am the single parent of 2 great boys. I enjoy being involved in their lives. It never crossed my mind to let strangers dictate what thier needs are and how they would be educated. I am dumbfounded that someone thought parents would step aside and let very nice educators make the decisions on what are children need. I work in the medical field and as nice as many doctors and nurses are patients ask questions and participate in the care they recieve.  So thanks for the thought --but I prefer to stay involved!!
