should I buy in temecula

[quote=5yes]The teachers that work in this valley love their students and try to teach them to be independent thinkers. We delight in our student’s wisdom and new ideas. We celebrate their successes and listen when they have problems. We run into our students at the grocery store, at the mall, at the dentist and we try to live our lives to be good role models. I am proud to live and teach in Temecula, and I am excited for the excellent education my kids are receiving.[/quote]

Glad to see a *real* public school teacher posting here, 5yes.

A lot of homeschooling parents are completely unaware of all the stuff a person majoring in education has to go thru to be certified, how difficult (and political) it is to achieve “tenure” (even this is no guarantee of longetivity in this economy), and how much dedication it takes, year in, year out, when many of your student’s parents do not or cannot provide the minimum requirements for their children to succeed in school (i.e., decent bed to sleep in, breakfast, insisting on homework completion, having behavioral stds, etc). A couple of homeschool parents I know did *try* public school but felt their *special* kids didn’t get enough attention (w/one teacher and one aide per 20 students – lol) or that the teacher didn’t *like* their child (when you bring your kid up with antisocial traits, it fosters these feelings of isolation, IMO).

I have many relatives who have retired from public school teaching. All taught more than 30 years. I just have the utmost respect for that profession . . . it’s not for everybody. It takes a certain kind, with stamina, a backbone and a real love of teaching and kids.

The level of education of the homeschool parents I am familiar with is a HS diploma and one has a GED. I think they are doing their children a great disservice. The oldest parent graduated from HS about 25 years ago. During the middle of the “school day,” I see these kids outside playing all the time.

I have two years college and a graduate (500 level) certificate in business litigation and a few business licenses and I AM UNQUALIFIED to teach basic academic subjects. Because I KNOW WHAT IT TAKES and I KNOW WHAT I AM (good at a LOT of stuff but teaching school is not one of them – lol), I do not attempt to do something for which there are persons HIGHLY TRAINED AND QUALIFIED TO DO, for whom my (our) taxes already pay their salaries. If I can realize this, then a parent with a(n) *old* GED or HS diploma (and no further education) should be able to know their limitations and send their kids to school instead of using them as a crutch for their *own* personal baggage.

In the South Bay, you live in a different world than most of us. While I dont personally believe in it, CAR homeschools her kids and WAS a public school teacher. C’Bad homeschools her kids and I have no doubt she is capable of doing so.

sdr, I’m not going to further hijack this thread and get “defensive” here but San Diego Co. (South Bay) is NOT a “different world” than San Diego Co. (North County) or “NCC.”

I never stated that Piggs who “homeschool” are unqualified to do so. I stated that “I” am unqualified to do so and I feel that parents with limited education themselves should not attempt to do so. I do not really know the educational levels of CAR and C’Bad. Do you, sdr?? Why don’t you let these adults speak for themselves, if they wish to?

Back to the topic at hand, I NEVER stated anywhere here that TV was not a good place to live. What I stated was that those TV residents with a family who work out-of-county ARE VOLUNTARILY SACRIFICING their precious time commuting. With the cost of the annual water/sewer utility bonds and MR (described here by TG and Ren) thrown into the mix and multiplied over the life of the bonds as well as the extra monthly gasoline cost, I just wonder if the SD, OC and LA workers who CHOOSE to purchase their residence in TV are actually really saving any $$ on housing by situating their families there (which was the most oft-stated reason for buying there, in the first place).

Listening to your viewpoints on life the last few months its pretty safe to say we live in very different worlds and look at things very differently.

As for homeschooling, its not my cup o tea either but you came down vary hard on it in many ways multiple times. You are moonwalking now. And yes I have met both CAR and C’Bad and have a good idea of their educational levels.

As for TV living, there is more to the money than the money. Some people cant afford to live in the kind of community they want to in SD so they are willing to sacrifice “their precious time” to provide the precious lifestyle they want for their families. It goes well beyond the walls of one’s home and extends to the people they live around also. In my eyes its a pretty noble sacrifice to make.
