Yeah, that is weird, huh? My father in-law was telling me that people don't want to support vouchers that would allow people who want to send their kids to private schools to put some of their tax dollars toward tuition. He said that people are saying that this is taking money away from public schools. But then he made a good point and said that public school people should actually encourage the vouchers because they way it works is that if it takes $5,000 a year (totally made up number) to educate a child in public schools, the voucher would only be for $3,000. So, the public school actually ends up with $2,000 not designated toward a particular student that they could use.
And, really, why are people so defensive about public schools? Does any parent really think they're the best education available? It's almost like they feel that if their kid isn't getting a private school education, no one else's should either. Bryce and I have decided to start saving now so that our kids can go to private school.
Anyways, that's my rant for the day ;) And I'm always up for ice cream and brownies!
