....So if it’s not the American education system that’s at fault are you saying that parents throughout the rest of the world are superior? Perhaps the children in other countries are just smarter? We spend more money per child than anyone else in the world and still get the poorest results....
No Larry! What I'm saying OUTRIGHT(and I'm sure by this time you would except my response to be nothing less)...is that, the american parent on the whole are TOO FREAKIN' BUSY chasing the ALMIGHT DOLLAR than to spend....a much overused phrase to be sure...much "quality time" mentoring their spoiled, video game playing, junk food eating, probably over-weight little brats. So INSTEAD of sitting down with their kids to HELP TEACH their little twerps something about this big wide world of ours(like say....geography maybe?!), we figure it's "those teachers' responsibiity" to do THAT...."'Cuz, GEEEEE! That's why I spend so much time at work to make all that MONEY, so I can send my little brats to school".
And THIS is especially true if DADDY doesn't live here anymore!
Get the picture? Or should I ask...can you read THAT road map???
Cheers,
Dwight

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
