		<description>My oldest is in Kindergarten and I am cracking under the pressure already! Too much. Plus her principal is a d***. So I am giving her a vacation this week and she is winging her way to Disney with my folks. I can't belive my five year old needs a vacation already, but she does. School is stressful for everyone.

		<description>gah- Rita nailed me. But it worked! Thanks for the visits all!

And to this one:

"Would it be a good idea to send notes home when I feel my son doesn’t have a grasp on the material or would that only annoy the teacher. How much should I expect? "


I think you should call for a conference &#38; the teacher will then take it more seriosuly.</description>

		<description>" Why do I get the feeling that teachers spend more time handing out “naughty” passes and watching “educational” films and send home assignments for parents to simply home school their kids.

I’m so tired of having to teach my child the material on the homework. Am I alone in this?"

yeah, you are. What kind of craptastic school are ya sending  your kids to? Holy cow!</description>

		<description>We do the fundraisers, well, cause grandma and I love to shop. Also, I know that the PTA needs the money for all those little events that my kids love to go to- skate party, lock in etc etc. If the PTA doesn't have the $$$, then they'll have to charge entry fees, and not every family would be abe to participate, which goes against the whole point of a PTA.</description>

		<description>OK, so #4.  We're all sick.  Whether it's from school or from the nasty little play area at the mall I let Liz explore on Wednesday, we may never know.</description>

		<description>Oh, also we don't get flu shots, but if you get them for the kids, make sure you get Themerasol-free, because they do still put it in there.</description>
