I think you miss my point...I’m supportive of those who wish to homeschool, but hold in contempt those who cop the holier than thou attitude about it...they aren’t necessarily better partents or better people or more caring or more loving. I personally know a homeschooled man who is just getting out of prison and he has about a third grade education.

Private schools have all the same social problems of public schools only they don’t have the direct force of law behind them. And as long as there are compulsory school laws on the books, it doesn’t matter where the kid goes to school, the government compells the parents to school the kids. Public, private, or home.

Something that I beleive about public schools is that they are reflective of the community, therefore GIGO. Solid communities with solid values tend to have solid public schools, and yes, I have seen them. Communities that have crappy schools also tend to have crappy values.

It is evident that you entirely missed my point to Gabz.

The government has forced, and will force, children into **involuntary** assembly with these drugies. This is a First Amendment violation of our God-given right to free assembly.

Government schools are a First Amendment and freedom of conscience abomination.
