“Really? When did grandparents become nullified? “

Their not nullified, but it’s the parent’s responsibility. Not the Grandparents.

Bravo to Grace Bush and all home schooling parents. Good parents with an invested interest in their children and their education should become endemic in this country, instead of just sending your kids to public schools. Remember what they're learning in public schools...we must get hold of what our children are being taught in the communist/socialist/marxist schools of today, and make sure they are being taught the truth about this great country, and in a manner we were all taught in the 40s and 50s for instance..math was difficult for me but I did learn. If I were a kid today in school who was burdened with common core crap, I don't know what I'd do. Mentally, I'd be at my wits end. This abuse of our children must be stopped...get involved, parents, and home school your children, or, along with other parents, hire a retired teacher to teach your children..research home schooling and find out how it can be achieved. And God bless all parents who fight for their kids...your job is a very difficult one.

I think that was intended as sarcasm.

Two of my homeschoolers earned B.S. degrees in mathematics by the age of 18. And...All three finished all college general courses and Calculus 3 by the age of 15,

They were **NOT** “whizkids”. They were merely homeschooled.

My kids are not any brighter than any of the kids of any Freeper. It was their homeschooling that made the difference.

My kids are NORMAL. It is the institutionalized child in the K-12 indoctrination camps who is being artificially delayed and retarded in his educational and social development.
