I'm mad at the system that drove you out. Big difference. Indeed. I am, too. But you're really asking the same question I am: what does the parent of an HG+ child owe to other HG+ children and to the schools themselves? I don't have a good answer to that right now. I only know what I owe to my child. Everything else, I'm still trying to figure out. Kriston

And love you, ya' ol' softie! Of course, big scary meanie that I am, all wrapped up in giant philosophical questions about the nature of education and what constitutes duty... Perhaps I spent too many years in graduate school and I just need to get a life! Kriston

Keep in mind that I'm a writer (or want to be) so I compose at the keyboard a lot. I spent <mumble mumble> years in grad school writing English papers, most composed--you guessed it!--at the keyboard the night before they were due. I'm FAST!

I just go straight to the typing. <smirk> Actually, the ability to form cogent thoughts and put them into words fast is one of the only things grad school taught me. Oh, and I wouldn't have met my husband without my time there. So it was a win-win for me, really. And 'Neato, you make an excellent point! Thank goodness for no lives! Kriston

If I couldn't multitask >and< write fast, I truly would have NO life, as much as I write here! I don't spend nearly as much actual time on this forum as it looks like I do. No, really. I don't! I'm sure of it! Kriston
