    I would yank my kid out of that crazy place ASAP.

    When I was in preschool my mom was told I would be kicked out if she didn't buy me longer dresses. My dresses were short -- as was the style at the time. She was not going to buy me new dresses, she couldn't afford it as a single mom and didn't see the need: I was 4. There was nothing to see. She pulled me out of there.

    William, when calling people morons, it's probably a good idea to use proper grammar in your sentence construction. I'm just sayin' . . . . .

    Not a good example to use. A bologna sandwich will kill you also, just not as fast as a bullet. Both are lethal weapons. :)
