Have you found many who share your experience?</p> <p>For one thing, I have yet to find anyone else, anywhere, whose parents were allowed to determine which teachers he had. If that were more universally true, I imagine the public school experience would be vastly different from what it is today.</p> <p>Or maybe not, based on the percentage of the population that votes intelligently in political matters (meaning with knowledge and thought; I'm not referring to any particular slant).</p>tag:sursumcorda.salemsattic.com,2018:/isso/210/7172007-10-29T12:50:02ZJon Daley<p>It would be interesting to me to know which school, (Heather's or mine) is more &quot;typical&quot;, if there is such a thing.</p>tag:sursumcorda.salemsattic.com,2018:/isso/210/7162007-10-28T23:14:43Zjoyful<p>It's so refreshing to choose to live outside of the &quot;must make lots of money&quot; cycle. Now that Jon is supporting us full time with Lime Daley, his income is less than half of what it was at Dynavox. Yet, I am excited about it! I'm excited about the extra time the family has together (even now when Jon is playing catchup with all the work he postponed until now.) I've been reading about how to cut grocery costs and I'm even excited about that. Strange, huh? But this life is much more <em>real life</em> and it is rich.</p>
