I love this article and i couldn't agree more! Your not going to accomplish anything if you dont go about it politically. If you want something done you need to work with someone in power some one high up. This way you can pick and choose how your childs education career will go. It determines what funds go where, which teachers they hire, what tests scores count towards, what should be taught in classrooms, everything.... If the parents arent involved in the voting process they cant be mad about the outcome. However if they do caare about their childrens education and do decide to vote they could just make a difference. Some parents think "well whats one vote going to do", "they dont need my vote", when the truth is they really do. And your children really need you to as well... seeing as how they cant vote, you need to be your childs voice. Your building their future, and laying the stones creating the path they will take the rest of their lives if you cant somewhat control that, you have nothing. Without education you have nothing, with no vote will come no change. So this election season be your childs voice and stand up them and their classrooms, and the teachers who are shaping your children into what they want to be everyday. Be that hero, make that vote, and make it count!
