I am glad you had a wonderful childhood. But what about "Mom's on crack, Dad's in jail". Not so joyful at home. My daughter is a preK teacher and their program only accepts at-risk students. The only way to break the cycle is early intervention. This is much more than an education issue. It is pretty obvious that it is PreK now or Prisons later. Where would you like to spend your money?
