"SAH doesn't support change, it supports going backwards to the 1950's,"

Statement in a post below.

I wholeheartedly disagree. To me, SAH is a choice. How is that going back to the 1950s, when a lot of women didn't have much of a choice.

I didn't say anything about ability.


So what happens when he gets to middle and high school when there any more competitions?

No, what I said what that I believe it's not helpful, because soon those rewards won't mean anything and they need bigger rewards to motivate them in order to do their work as you described in an earlier post.

Why?

<<You have implied though that it would be better for kids to not read at all instead of reading for prizes. >>


No, what I said was that I would prefer if my kids didn't read at all (except for their schoolwork) if they were reading for prizes.

So in other words, a predictable pattern.

As I have said, I had both the teachers and principal's approval to take my child out of school.

It is given out at school...and I assume that the staff takes care of it. However, the district has stated that it wants us to give out attendance awards. That still doesn't help me understand what that has to do with the PTO.
