“Yea, but since public schools are free, why should I care what goes on there?”
—
There are many excellent public schools attended by people who could well afford pricey private schools. It’s a choice for them.
.
.
1) All of them are ( by law) godless in their worldview and curriculum.
2) All of them are a socialist entitlement. All the children who attend are at risk of learning to be comfortable with socialism. Gee! If the voting mob can give the child tuition-free schooling, why not use that same voting mob to get **lots** of “free” stuff?
3) A child in a godless classroom will learn to think and reason godlessly. They must just to cooperate in the godless classroom and do their godless assignments.
4) Children who attend government schools are in danger of being comfortable with the suppression of their First Amendment Rights. Why? Because all government schools strictly control speech, press, assembly, and all government schools establish the religious philosophy of atheism.
5) Children in government schools are in many ways treated like prisoners and are in danger of learning to be comfortable government prisoners. In all government schools, government functionaries control speech, press, and assembly. They even control when their captives ( oops! “students”) can move, what and when they can eat, and when use the rest room. Government school grounds look like prisons and their play areas look like prison exercise yards.
Prove me wrong.
