Not to brag (well, a little), but my daughter, who jumped from 6th to 8th grade, and who currently is a 16-year-old senior at a community college/high school hybrid (one of four nationwide), is a bit on the smart side, and her tales about the kids she goes to school with -- and remember, she's in an accelerated program -- are depressing. By the end of every week, she's ranting about the lack of creative intelligence and political awareness. She really despises America, at least the parts she's aware of, and looks to move to Europe, most likely France.

What kind of parent am I?!
