You see we can only send our children to school for free when they reach 5 years old. SO I have 2 years to wait before my son can get an education he needs. Yes we have head start for three year olds; SO I contacted them. I have a family of 3 with a gross income of 30k. This income I can barely support my family with the economic conditions as they are. I was told that I make over the gross income of 17K so my son cannot get assistance for school. My question for Mr Obama is What will he do to help children at a young age get the education they deserve, and what will he do to make sure as a child grows through his education that the curriculum is appropriate on a child per child basis. Mr Obama calls this a campaign of change, I hope the change is not a democrat in the middle east, and instead a change of focus on family and our national economy.
