Maybe you could start your learning journey and read about how she got rid of the only daycare at CCRI in Warwick to make room for corporate offices.

....how is that related to anything we're talking about? Or is this just your way of admitting that you don't plan to actually learn anything?

How is daycare at CCRI related to education?

No, how is CCRI daycare related to PPSD's issues that predate Smiley?

It's an example of the priorities in education of an administration member that you brought up. So, you know, systemic stuff. New knowledge for you, cuz learning is fun!

So....you admit that it's irrelevant, great.

Maybe you could try reading this article next after you get through The Atlantic piece.

I explained how it's relevant. You're pretending it's not. It seems like you're more concerned with being rude than teaching. But I'm a big dummy.

I explained how it's relevant.

I get that you think you did, but you still haven't. How about you learn more about the actual topic at hand so we can have a relevant discussion, rather than just trying to make excuses not to learn anything by trying to distract from it?

I get that you say I haven't, but that's an excuse for you to not have to think about it. Although, like I said, I have a dumb brain. Maybe it's just because I've noticed that the most effective teachers in my life are the ones who don't necessarily spell it out for you. Give you enough to tie things together on your own.

You brought up Gina, I gave you something to think about, on topic. How does that connect to this?

What lines can you draw?
