Meanwhile, what are these students' eventual math and science test scores? One has to wonder what else could be taught in the same time period that's being used to discuss this. Isn't there time enough outside of school or later in life for the children to absorb society's values on these matters?

Shouldn't the schools stick to the 3 R's, at least in the first few grades?

A lot of the "teachers" aren't even capable of teaching these fundamentals.
