Palin's Kids - Why aren't they in school?
Mine are in school. Why aren't her's? Homeschooled? Anyone know. I have never heard one way or the other.

1. I'll cut her slack on that. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity for them and I assume they
have tutors or at least have been sent classwork to keep up on.

2. Yes...the important thing
is that the family is together, especially the littlest two, although a 13 year old needs her mom and dad around as much as possible, too.

3. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity, anyway.
But I think you're giving Todd and Sarah too much credit on your assumptions.

15. That and AK has a really big homeschool support system.
Lots of classes and stuff available since there are lots of homeschooled kids (either due to religion or to where they live-in the bush).

12. He is busy preparing for his Cabinet position in the McCain administration.
He wants either Secretary of State or Secretary of Treasury but several members of his staff say he actually is lobbying to hold both positions at the same time.
