“Can’t we all simmer down a bit? Let the teachers teach, the parents parent, and the kids do the learning. Our children will be fine, just as we were. They will figure it out, just as we did. They don’t need every advantage skewed their way and every discomfort fluffed with pillows. I bet they don’t even need sandwich dolphins. I am a product of bologna, red Kool-Aid, and home perms, and I turned out okay.”
