We've taken the kids out of school, rented out the house, purchased around-the-world tickets, planned as much as we can, packed as little as we can, and now we're setting out to see the world. Or at least as much of it as we can over twelve months. It's a year to grow, to learn, to create, to live, to give, and to think. Together. Feel free to follow along.

"How many times has a kid said to me,'You work for me; I am your employer,'" sighed one such administrator to me, recently.

the teachers work for them; rather than serving as authority figures to the kids, educators at such schools complain that wealthy US parents increasingly expect "service" and "deliverables" from teachers, so won't brook a poor grade or evaluation, or a difficult experience for their child

List of cognitive biases From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search A cognitive bias is a pattern of deviation in judgement that occurs in particular situations (see also cognitive distortion and the lists of thinking-related topics). Implicit in the concept of a "pattern of deviation" is a standard of comparison; this may be the judgment of people outside those particular situations, or may be a set of independently verifiable facts. The existence of some of these cognitive biases has been verified empirically in the field of psychology, others are widespread beliefs, and may themselves be a consequence of cognitive bias.
