A Lament for Homeschooling Parents

On a regular basis, I call my son's principal, and in all earnestness I exclaim, "Whatever it is you think he's done, please, give him another chance!"

And every time she replies, calmly but firmly, "Your son is no longer a student at our school. You withdrew him. You decided to homeschool, remember?" And then she hangs up on me.

And every time I am left with this horrible sense of finality.
