"She didn't break any laws and was not arrested. So what is your problem then? She is perfectly free to say what she wants, and she did. One of the lessons that I am trying to teach my two-year old is that for every action, there is a reaction. Stop by sometime and I will be happy to include you in on the lesson (it will have to be before 7:30 PM though because that is his bedtime)."

Yep, pretty basic lesson. And yet some folks appear to have never learned it. Newton's Law of Motion applies here too. "For every action there is an equal or opposite reaction."

She should have never been hired in the first place!

Where was the logic in naming someone who doesn't believe a program should exist to head up that program?

Just a quick comment about the supposed link between starting school unprepared and ADHD -- My parents spent plenty of time (when they weren't working) teaching me reading, writing, counting, etc. I started kindergarten on my 5th birthday. I never had any problems in school.

Anyway, when I started at NCSU, my adviser noticed some struggles I was having outside of the classroom and suggested I be tested for ADHD after asking me some questions. It looks like she was right.

The point is, I'm against state sponsored parenting. I also have ADHD. Yes, I know this is off topic, but I'm kind of sick of seeing people try to link the two.

"That free day care program needs to be gutted. Sounds like the right woman for the job even if she is rather looney."

What an odd statement to make. So you would want an unstable person making important decisions for Wake County and it's residents? I guess it's good that you don't make those choices for us then.

If you'd like to discuss any of the claims, please be specific.

"Great article. Look at McCrory's judgment and decide for yourself.

"The simple fact in this matter is that it is a poor choice to appoint someone to oversee a program in which they hold in such utter contempt." ----- Welcome to the bottom line folks!!

just become a Democrat Puppet,, tell then what they want to hear,, call a meeting, meet for months, only producing a politically correct opinion or statement. Call a conference in Las Vegas bring in all parties from around the country, "Democrats of course",, put together another statement, present it on TV and to the bias media, let is run its course,, and pass the final decission on to the next elected Democrat,, but that one will need more help, so he hires more Democrats to help him decide,, then after 3 or 4 years, something is decided on, "Increase taxes or goverment"...Now those are facts if you are willing to look and compare on how things are handled now of days!
