Loud and clear, damn it.<BR/><BR/>We've been struggling to make this school year work for my older daughter, and I actually had another mom in the class say to me "Oh, you're at home, couldn't you just sit in the classroom and monitor it all day?" Ya. Right. 'Cause all I do now is eat bon-bons. Ri-ight.<BR/><BR/>Saying "no".
