Why are you slamming Mykidsmom? If our public school teachers were the best of the best there would be no argument. She is merely stating what the lot of us are who have kids in public school and can't change that because of our financial conditions.

easy, easy! I'm not slamming anybody. I was just proposing an argument she could try on her husband.

I went through the exact same situation with a good friend whose husband was adamant that his kids would go to public school. She finally talked him out of it after two kids brought a gun to her son's middle school and nobody did anything about it for a WEEK. But you can't count on that happening in Mykidsmom's local school (this one is a hellhole), so perhaps the medical argument will resonate with him.
