Our daughter started school three weeks after I began teaching in Cherokee County in August, 2011. This was a hardship on our family.

What would you do if you were RIF'd and worked elsewhere where you didn't get the summer and frequent breaks off?
.... hardship on our family, and her mother had to take personal days off from her job to assure her child's safety.
- in the real world, we use: day care, nannys, au paires, lifestyle choices rather than whining
