My 11 year old says he wants to go into the armed forces for 2 years then let
them help him pay for his college education/computer degree... The 8 year old
doesn't know what he wants from 1 minute to the next. <smile>

Some people may think I'm extreme about this but its because I care so much.
Depriving my children of educational choices is bad. Thats "IMHO" but there it
is. Its kinda like only being taught -1- theory of how it all began. (and I'm
not going to get into the evolution/creation debates here, just using it as an
example). My children should *know* that there are choices and be allowed to
choose them. Not offered only 1 standard, bugger the rest... ;-)
