“Public Skool (sic) psychologist, I presume? A couple of degrees (free) from sttae (sic) university; union creds (sic); and absolutely no experience with real children in the real world.”

1. At that time, Assoc. School Psychologist.
2. Two degrees (NOT FREE)
3. No union - Texas doesn't smile on unions.
4. Reared two children of my own who are successful in the “real” world. Taught elementary school "real" children for six years.
5. Psychologically tested, counseled “real” children and their parents who live in the “real” world.
6. Later, in private practice.
Over 30 yrs. experience.

You said, “no experience with real children in the real world.”

Perhaps you have robot children in your life - I never met one.

OK. I apologize.

Thanks for correcting all my typos!
