Excuse me - these "moms and dads are trapped" because, for one thing, there *is* no "dad." Mom has 4-5 children out of wedlock, probably uses drugs, and the children start school academically and intellectually *behind.*

The real "terrorism" here is the terrorism of immorality and family disintegration in the inner cities. *Good* public schools are getting ruined by No Child Left Behind, because even the Republicans are too politically correct to identify *destructive family behaviors* at the root of most poor children's inability to do well in school.

If people are "trapped" in inner-city ghetto schools, don't blame the teachers.
