Negative Positive
Title: Superb and useful book
Review: A thorough and useful book. Shows practical ways and guidelines/checklists to evaluate whether the school is teaching your kids, or wasting their time. While the book concentrates on helping your kids take advantage of (or survive!) public schools and other schools, there is also a lot of fascinating info showing how the schools have degenerated and why.One of the most useful parts of the book is factual and practical advice about dealing with schools and problem teachers. For example, what to do if your kid is assigned to a useless stupid and incompetent teacher. A situation which, in these days of affirmative action and "dumbing down," occurs far too often.
