I ...Your comments are really divorced from reality. I wish you had attended last week's meeting of the neighborhood committee of the Silver Spring Advisory Board and hear the local principals talk about the challenges they face. The principals from Blair and Northwood talked about the difficulty they face in reaching the disengaged kids, about how they wish they had vocational programs because that is what some kids are asking for. One of our middle schools has taken to feeding dinner to children AFTER school because they are concerned that the kids are not being fed right at home. <br /><br />Plus, you can continue to act as if the only kids who come to Silver Spring are from Montgomery County. The curfew also would apply to the kids from DC and PG County who are coming here. Berliner is right that Montgomery County is not DC and it's not Prince George's County. But it's not Sunnybrook Farm either.Woody Brosnanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05396619795756337811noreply@blogger.com
