AO has always been fueled by volunteers, but that vision of presenting a cm education available to all for free does not mean there are not years of study and practice behind it, more than you will find even among the 'paid professionals.'

I'd clearly never say that mothers or volunteers are under qualified as it sounds like in your reply.
I also don't need anyone's qualifications as that was not my point. My point was that I didn't mean to offend anyone and didn't realize that the people holding classes were also attending them and volunteering and paying to be there. I'm not sure why you're seeming to take the worst out of my comments and then reprimand me publicly after I apologize. I am super new to ALL of this. I've never used a forum, I don't know what people's titles on here mean, I don't know anything about conferences (and have never been to one), and know no one that does CM homeschooling or even knows anything about it. I didn't know I'd get chastised for making a suggestion and didn't realize that it would be taken in the worst way and appear that I was ungrateful and expected more from anyone. I'm sure a hundred people would like to take two classes that are being held at the same time but as I said, I didn't really expect anyone to change the entire schedule on my little comment. I also didn't expect to upset/offend/insult anyone, which is why I apologized.
