It would be hard to have male designations for bees, since male bees only have one designation. The men probably don't want a personalized "DRONE" label. Administrator

The link appears to be acceptable.

This thread has immediately gone off topic and will now be closed. If you'd like to try again, you may. While we completely understand why other boards have different policies, discussion of specific curricula and programs is encouraged on our boards. That includes criticisms of SOTW, TWTM and other books written by Jessie and Susan. It is our policy that books offered for sale to the general public should be open to public critique. This only strengthens the offerings available to home educators. However, the discussion should center around the books, not around personalities or the intentions of those who use/offer them. Administrator

This thread can continue as long as 1. specific reasons are cited for objections to books (no vague & general remarks) 2. there are no personal attacks. Administrator

Personal attacks often result in a single-day ban. Administrator

This thread can continue if you all stop reporting each other for expressing differing opinions. Adminstrator

This discussion can now be taken to PMs.

We would prefer not to assume that ALL contentious threads will immediately go downhill. We will give the board members the chance to respond in a mature and thoughtful manner. Those who don't will be banned without warning. Administrator

There is no abridged version of the Story of the World (if you can post a link, we will help clear this up). Administrator

Please take further discussion to email. These boards are not an appropriate place to air ongoing details of family disputes. They are public and can be read by anyone. Administrator
