race to nowhere

03.02.11
I went to a screening of race to nowhere this week. It was not as in depth as I would have liked but I do think that it is a great discussion starter. I have always been a big believer in lots of free time for our children. (Or perhaps I am just lazy.) I have also experienced the frustrations of having a child at a school that was not a good fit.

I have learned that there are usually more options than we might first see. Life and childhood are far to precious to needlessly suffer through.

Have you seen this movie? What did you think?


I also read this book earlier this year. It has a lot of great things to say. I would highly recommend it for anyone with school aged children.
