Guys, we just need to throw more money at it. How can we expect to teach a child basic skills for a measly 80k? I propose a 50% property tax increase to fix this injustice.

Now your getting it, for a while I thought maybe you were also a complete idiot.

One tip I have is to bring your kids to the public library kids once a week. Our grands look foreword to that and it's a great tool. It gets parents involved to see what they are interested in and what they are good at and encourage accordingly.

I thought this was funny on its own, even before I realized caption was cut off.

It's from a movie bt accurate. I worked for a local rancher who home scooled his 3 kids. Their vocabulary was incredible.

My daughter has mentioned, on more than one occasion, the admiration she has for PAPER books.

She has also mentioned, on more than one occasion, she was very happy we shared that with her growing up.

Read to your kids every day. Buy them books and fill their rooms with them. IMO it’s one of the best ways for them to learn AND enjoy it.

We read to our boys every night and to this day, 30+ years later, they are still into reading books. My wife tried the Kindle, didn’t like it, liked the feel of paper also. I’m still a big reader, daily newspaper, magazines, and I’ve always got a book by my night stand.
I don’t think many kids read outside school.
