That’s what I was thinking;if there is no homework, no books go home, parents are kept unaware of the materials. If you have kids in public school, please visit their classrooms, or volunteer in the classroom, and look at the assignments and books. And rememember that you are the employer and boss of these people running the education system.
You are, of course, right. But you will encounter some hostility, if you try to point out to those people, that you are their employer. Many of them haven’t gotten the message that we are supposed to have a Republican form of Government.
