Unfortunately, there isn't much performing going on, and unlike when we were students, the patents have little control over their children.<br /><br />To put it nicely, a rose is a rose. Right now, since the system and imposed regulations are failing, the general train of thought is to just do something different, anything different, that we can believe in. I don't see that being the answer. <br /><br />People need to understand there are state and federal regulations in place that force schools to keep unruly, unwilling and sometimes dangerous students in the schools. There are "allowances" for nonattendance without repercussion. We spend 90% of our resources, energy and time on less than 10% of the population.kkditherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16181697760037435065noreply@blogger.com
