    I had decided not to comment on this again as crowds are usually somewhat ignorant.

    The error in my assumption is that all parents would handle this with care. My kids would usually come to me or my wife with things like this.

    But I would be wrong in this assumption it seems. Especially with outliers around kids with psychological problems that are usually caused or acerbated by their parents.

    If I would somehow overlook something I would love to be able to rely on the school to inform me. I can however see, that that might be in the range of decisions a capable educator should be able to decide themselves. I certainly chose a good school for my kids and know they would handle that well.

    I must admit i imagined my kids in the hands of the American educational system which terrified me just a little more.

    So these down votes are somewhat my fault but then again I have loving parents and care about my children and the down votes don’t bother me more than maybe thinking on the issue one more time.

    So thank you for your plentiful comments. :)
