Why delay the ditch digging job they are destined for anyway? Parents need to participate in the education of their children. If they don't then all but a few kids will fail. If the kids going to fail, why let him drag everyone else down with him, get him out of the classroom. Damn with all the money that is being spent to take care of all the kids like they need the same kind of help as the few, we could probably create some three student classrooms for these PITA kids, and the normal kids will be able to learn without the added distraction. Schools do it all the time for the brightest kids. How many gifted programs have somewhere between 3:1 to 6:1 student to teacher ratio? -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
