Reply to "Helicopter Parents - from a college dean"

Ok TE, you win. I'm unplugging. I'm selling my house, pulling my kids out of school and going to live off the grid in the desert.  No more school, sports, band, ipads, cell phones for my kids.  Too much pressure.  Going to drink from the spring and hunt my food.  No more immunizations, doctors and that crazy stuff. Also going to liquidate my retirement, give it to Huffington Post b/c they tell it straight.

 

Guess what I'm really wishing for is the good old days when all I had to worry about was my kids getting polio or influenza, starving, wife dying from child birth, war, infant mortality and all the simple things in life.  Ahh the good old days.
