Thanks Cindy. Feeling very sorry for those who have no option but to send their children to our nation's public schools. There are many excellent teachers (like Ex-Soldier), but there are just as many, if not more, attempting to use our educational system as a platform to indoctrinate children to a liberal lifestyle. Is it coincidence the recent multitude of young female teachers having inappropriate relationships with young male students or does it signify a complete overhaul is in order pronto?

More important than many other educational topics is the need to teach patience, respect for the personal property of others, respect for elders, respect for law enforcement, respect for their own bodies (what they wear, how they are perceived and how it will influence their futures) and respect for those placed in charge of teaching our nation's youth (and the right to question teachers who abuse the trust of young student's).

The recent "need" for America's advertisers to use rap music in many of their presentations is appalling. Seeing women shaking their "moneymakers" on TV is nothing less than disgusting, especially when noted by impressionable young children.

Today we received a thick Sunday newspaper - filled with "holiday" ads. Only one retailer using the word "Christmas" repeatedly throughout. When we shop for gifts this week, we'll be spending it all at THAT retailer's store. Retailers, like school personnel, have an obligation IMHO to present classy ads and influence our nation's youth in the very best way possible.
