Ed, why don't you get off your high and mighty horse? You are no intellectual. For your information there is no doubt in my mind I could do a better job schooling my children than S. Butler, I just want the tax relief to go with it!!! If I have to do their job why should I pay them anything? I stand by my post and my words which were specifically chosen. They are babies; they are jerks and they are definetley pampered. You evidently have no children in S. Butler, I on the other hand do and I have not only earned the right to say what I have said but I also pay for that right!! How dare you tell me how to convey my thoughts and feelings about this strike! This is America Jack I will continue to speak my mind!! I have always helped my children with homework and school activities on top of working 80

+ hours in an average week!! Thank God I have an education, my children usually have no idea what to do with their homework because their teachers are too busy eating skittles and drinking tea during class. I have been to the parent teacher conferences and have seen first hand how the so called guidance couselers told my son to drop specific courses even after they knew what he was going to college for. When he got to college they asked him why he dropped such important courses during the senior year! The counseler said he didn't need them!! Asleep at the switch if you ask me!If I don't keep my eyes on everything that happens in that school my children suffer, Now this?!! Don't tell me how lucky we are to have these gifted people working at S. Butler, I know most of them all too well. There are only a handful worth their wages and I know who they are,My post was not directed at them. Pa. is one of only a handful of States left than even permit teacher strikes, this is another issue that should be dealt with in this area. Good luck controlling what I say and how I say it Ed. You should worry more about your own business and butt out of other peoples business. I think if you do that you will find you have more than enough to keep you busy.These "teachers" are overpaid as it is and I reserve the right to say what I please how I please, I am damn sure I have earned the right.
