I am not sure about how appropriate that article is when it comes to sending it with the kids home :) Pretty offensive for most mothers I am sure (especially the ending)

Hi Alexis,

I just checked and the article is still available when you click on the link. You could also google the title of the article, 'Don't get me started, why the heck have they closed my child's school?', and this brings it up.

Thanks
Lindy
