You protest and you protest, but the educrat establishment ignores everything you say if you don’t agree with them and their “experts.”

2. Talk to other parents. Compare notes, share experiences.

The latest take on the popular teen-aimed "Twilight" sci-fi-fantasy-horror film series is in town and it's playing at the Fandango Galaxy cineplex.
