Please support the Forum by using the Amazon Link this Holiday Season

Amazon has started their Black Friday sales and there are some great deals to be had! As you shop this holiday season, please consider using the forum's Amazon.com link (listed in the menu as "Amazon Link") to add items to your cart and purchase them. The forum gets a small commission from every item sold.

Additionally, the forum gets a "bounty" for various offers at Amazon.com. For instance, if you sign up for a 30 day free trial of Amazon Prime, the forum will earn $3. Same if you buy a Prime membership for someone else as a gift! Trying out or purchasing an Audible membership will earn the forum a few bucks. And creating an Amazon Business account will send a $15 commission our way.

If you have an Amazon Echo, you need a free trial of Amazon Music!! We will earn $3 and it's free to you!

Your personal information is completely private, I only get a list of items that were ordered/shipped via the link, no names or locations or anything. This does not cost you anything extra and it helps offset the operating costs of this forum, which include our hosting fees and the yearly registration and licensing fees.

Stay safe and well and thank you for your participation in the Forum and for your support!! --Deborah

    That's correct.

    I've got no problem with posts that stick to the facts, from any perspective, are informative and don't name call or incite. The debate about education in this country is an important one. We can all learn from the various perspectives about it but I don't see any use in posts that embed or are frank attacks taken on to make a point.
    Mission to CFB's National Championship accomplished. But the shine on the NC Trophy is embarrassingly wearing off. It's M B-Ball ..... or hockey or volley ball or name your college sport favorite time ...... until next year.

        Gee what a surprise! My posts were not only deleted but edited by the censor police! I just achieved Talent status! What is the difference in calling someone a Leftist extremist and family personally responsible for the corruption and collapse of the Detroit school system and calling that person a right wing reactionary. As always in this forum it just matters whose ox is being gored. The biggest drawback to this forum is that if your viewpoint doesn't align with a moderator you are shut down under the guise this is my forum and you will behave to my standard or out you go. Time for me to take a leave of absence once again.

              It was me. And with that, I will take a one-day suspension as mod. Just come back, Stan. It's football season, goddamnit.

                Jon:

                I want to apologise. I got way too personal and I shouldn't have. You had a bad experience at Holly Academy, and I'm just glad it wasn't a school that I am in any affiliated with. You are obviously a good and engaged parent, and that is the highest compliment I can give. If more parents cared as deeply as you, we wouldn't be having this discussion. Let's just agree to disagree.

                Jeff has it right. This is a really good thread, and I apologise to the lot of you (except AA of course) if I am messing it up.

                  I agree with AA:

                      No question it was Jeff Oracle.Not the first time he has censored or banned me. I don't really give a shit because I'm pretty thick skinned, but it is the disparate treatment that is offensive.

                        I'm offended that Jeff beat me to it.... that's what I get for going out with the in-laws ...

                        come on, Stan.. smile ...
