[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 309955, member: 1550"] Mutt, I enjoyed your perspective as a teacher. I do know that other countries have something like a fast track program for fast learners to be college bound and almost doom some kids to tech school or less if they aren't as smart so YOU ARE RIGHT. We're not behind as much as our kids who aren't brilliant have more choices. Thank you for your perspective. Well, I'm not interested in my kid having short breaks or going to school for a longer day or all year. I think it's sort of a popular idea to help parents who both work and don't want to pay for child care, and that's ok. But that's not our situation and I wouldn't want it to be mandatory. Certainly it would work better for some kids. So make it a choice. I have it all figured out. :raspberry-tounge: [/QUOTE]
