Bump from a proud parent of a homeschooled child that is now a happy, well adjusted and successful adult who ran rings around most of her public school indoctrinated contemporaries.
She went to public high school for 3 eye opening years. Looking back I still marvel at the ignorance, incompetence, duplicity, amorality, sheer laziness and the incessant outright lying of those in the system at the HS and the entire county school system. I shudder to think how much worse it must have gotten since my dealings with them ended in 2000.
If our public school system isn’t radically overhauled, there is no hope. And I just don’t see that happening. It is too late for incrementalism.
Didn’t Barack Obama go to public schools?
