I was curious about San Diego Unified – so I went and looked it up.

The San Diego Unified School District, the second-largest in California, hopes to avoid issuing any layoff notices to permanent teachers this year by instead imposing five furlough days on all employees and a slew of other budget cuts. It plans to eliminate the jobs of up to 300 probationary teachers, along with 300 temporary teachers who are on one-year contracts.

My sister teaches for SDUSD – she’d mentioned an 8% paycut coming – I assume that’s the furloughs plus some other stuff.

Dave pretty much nailed it for me.

Lots of blame to go around. The strategic defaulters aren’t victims. The folks who took out loans more than they could afford are responsible for their bad decisions. As is the bank that loaned them more than they could afford.

Banks should pay a price for bad underwriting. Folks who walk away (strategically or not) should pay the price of lost down payments, credit score hits, social stigma… Share the blame, share the pain.

[quote=sdduuuude]Pump It Up – fixed fee for first 25 kids. Nominal charge per kid over 25. Two parties w/ 12 kids each costs double 1 party with 24. We had 28 or so.

At home – you have to set up and tear down twice. Takes double the time.

Legoland – smaller twin effect. Same kid cost, but assuming we don’t let the kids run amok in Legoland without us, we would have to pay to get the parents in twice.[/quote]

You do separate parties for each child? Most of the twin families we know (several) do a joint party.

Your kids are lucky to have you as a dad!
