Not true. It's not the school's responsibility to raise the kids with moral values. That's the parents job. I do not want the schools teaching my kid to have an all-encompassing acceptance of everything. I want the schools teaching my kid how to use proper English, solve math problems, and have an understanding of science....with the ultimate goal being that in one of those classes, she'll find something that really sparks her interest in which she can develop into a career choice..and excel at that subject.
I wish schools were just for academics. Unfortunately, it isn't the case. Kids that aren't raised correctly don't allow for learning to happen, so teachers and other school staff have to correct the issues, raise the child in essence, before the rest of the kids can even open a book.
We have geared our society towards the stupidest and basest of all citizens. We take from the properous and give to the lazy. We hold all children back because of a few. We lower our standards so we can claim success. If you bitch about it, you are deemed a racist or an uncaring conservative.
I supplement education at home. I don't count on a school to deliver all my child needs to know. My parents didn't have that worry because the dumbasses and punks had their own school. My child has to sit in a classroom with them to become more PC. As a result, my littlest one now thinks half of the people in the world are stupid and bratty. I can't fault that logic.
