I don’t live in any kind of a fairy world, I just happen to live in an area where the parents actually are parents and understand what being a parent means.
I’m actually thankful for the few private schools in this area, they tend to attract the bad kids whose parents would rather pay the tuition than the bail or actually be parents.
Typical of those who hate the PS system, you resort to personal attacks rather than any attempt at legitimate discourse.
I gave you legitimate discourse..and you ignored it. Why are you so enamoured of public schools? They actually shouldn’t even exist..the government has no more right to be involved in education than anything else they’ve screwed up royally. Why would you want your tax dollars going to people who support homosexual indoctrination and abortion on demand, because that’s exactly what the teachers unions are pushing. Just because you got lucky doesn’t mean the majority of school districts are any good.. Any school district run by the teachers unions are in danger of being ruined by their politics. I think you have your head in the sand.
and just for the record... you’re completely off base when it comes to private schools. They don’t attract “bad kids”, because you have to maintain a higher standard of behavior and grades to attend most private schools. And most private school parents I know, myself included, send their children there to get a much better education than they’d ever hope for in a government run mill. The parents are also expected to be involved with the school for a certain number of hours per school month. So I don’t know what your problem is with private schools, but you make absolutely no sense.
Gabz, i think you need to take a break from the education threads. You are embracing the very tactics that you despise in others. Denigrating private schools as magnets for BAD KIDS with lazy parents? Tearing down something else in order to prop up/defend one's own choice is never a good debating tactic.
