Hi Everyone,
I have been reading the Ad stuff in the schools and corporate sponsor posts. As a parent, school volunteer, school employee and tutor, these issues are a concern but---
And I have also read the book "Fast Food Nation". We are also a 4th year host family for exchange students.
All the answers to your questions and issues are in the new book "The Trouble With Perfect" by Elisabeth Guthrie, MD. I think it is a super handbook for new parents, parents of schol kids, (the gifted, the average, and the special needs etc), also a great resource book for teachers and school administrators.
I think that this book "hits the nail on the head", "gets right down to the root of the nation's prob with kids and schools" and does it without blaming anyone or offending anyone.
I challenge everyone on this forum to read it and then send in your posts.
