and I have compromised my kids education
------------
At ages 5 & 7, when do you see this beginning to effect them? Surely any old American public school can babysit, and get the kiddos hooked on junkfood, just the same as the next, while teaching them the alphabet and simple arithmetic.
Unless its just a long winded way to say that you feel your failing them in the "good school" department, because now they will attend a school with blacks and mexicans

Dude chill! I never understand this obsession with the good school district from women. Now one does not want to go to a gangsta school district, but otherwise a moderate school is just fine.

The best school district is a two parent family (Dad and Mom) who are actively involved in their kid's education.
As far as the bad (gangsta) school districts, let's clean them up! What ever happened to reform schools?

Moral of the story:
Don't gamble with your Castle. You could end up losing the Castle and the Queen.

Yep... Many young parents don't get that and "think" they need to be in a good school system for junior to get a good education. The fact is, it starts at home, the school system doesn't matter if the parents do their job raising the kid right and teaches the kids how to be responsible.
It's not the school's job to raise the kids and make them good students, it's the PARENTS!
Good education does start at home, but does not end there. Good teachers, and friends are also critical.

All I know is a high ESL rate is no bueno. Wife is an educator & has been involved with the kids education since day 1, as have I.
you are not fucked. california's treatment of middle-class families with suburban values is. now is a wise time to leave the state.

Recently, someone bought my rental and informed me the rent is going to 3,800K. Ive looked at comparable rents and there is nothing in this school district for less than that. And you can forget about buying. Places like the one I sold are going for 200K more than what they were in 2008. This didn’t seem like a problem when we had a 1 year old. Now we have 2 ages 5 & 7. For years my wife fretted we would have to move to the shitty school district but I promised her that wouldn’t happen – the bust would be long over, we would buy at the bottom and be happy again.
She trusted me and my judgement of what is best for our family. If we have to move, her worst fear is realized. She will have lost all confidence in my judgement and I have compromised my kids education. After a few years away, I come back to the bubble sites for consolation and no one is left – all the wise voices who told me to wait are long gone. I waited for FUCKING YEARS and NOW I AM LOSING EVERYTHING – HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE!?!?!?!
