Thanks peeps. herenow, that's one of the better quotes for sure. La Texican, that's a great idea that I will bring up, but I dunno if they'll go for it. NH funding is so scarce that in the larger town next to mine they began shutting down gifted programs last year, and let 53 teachers go. Our psychologist just told me by email that if we homeschool, at least the local school has to provide gym, art, music etc. if we want it, so that's something.

ETA: Thanks, Bostonian. I don't feel right bumping this thread yet again right now, but I tend to agree with you and will keep the language toned down so as not to offend.
