I posted the comment below to Lee's blog. She did not publish it. She did,
however, publish another comment that I made directing Bart here. She knows
that...
I am a father, a husband, a businessman, and was an educator by choice. I am the parent of 3 children by choice. Each of them are destined for "success" at their respective ages of 27, 23, and 18. I did not fill out a request form prior to their birth. I did not choose any of their strengths or weaknesses. We have gone through the complete socialization process that is considered a due course in our society, respective to their ages. My reason for this blog came about because one of my children was, by virtue of his existence, sent down a different path for his socialization process. It was not my choice. It was not his choice. My normal socialization process was changed because of the conditions affecting him. Through the course of his life, we had the benefit of numerous people and a public system that provided him his opportunity for success. For those I will be eternally indebted to. I am here because they were there for him, and he can not thank them. Through the course of his life, we had the inopportunity to be subjugated to a few people and a public system fraught with deceit, disingenuity and contempt. I am here because there are few who can or will stand up to them.
