Umm I kinda think you could stand to learn a huge amount from the so called Psychobabble. As for the child who is struggling, you say you've spoken to him, his parents what about the school coucilor? In a recent reserch programme a whol specturm of children were watched and tested, the results were scary to say the least.

26% were struggling with even basic things, parents seemed to ignore the issue and on further investigation it was found over 12% of these child were victims of some form of parental abuse. 6% had geniuine learning difficulties and the final 8% were easily cured by either a sight test or a hearing test!!!.

you know the old saying, those who can do those who can't teach? well, those who can't teach become school councilors. they can't even figure out that a kid needs grade 11 math before taking grade 12 math, never mind trusting them with anything more complicated than that.

I'm reviving the original intent of this thread because I'm curious who still thinks Bush is trying :D

This thread is old and opinions have changed. Mine hasn't from the getgo. He was an idiot then with his own propaganda (sp?) and he's still an idiot now, still with that same propaganda, plus some I'm sure.
