Nearly all the socialization skills needed to survive high school must be unlearned if an adult is to have success in business, and in the home, extended family, and community. Thankfully humans are adaptable and most make the transition. Treating children like prisoners, marching them about to the sounds of bells, segregating them by age, teaching them subjects in a lockstep manner, all contribute to the formation of cliques. In prison they are called protection gangs. If you treat kids like prisoners you will get prison social pathology. Good observations. My kids have never set foot in a government education facility, and they won't either, unless we hear specifically from God that they need to invade one.

(This election is like running in the Special Olympics. Even if McCain wins, were still retarded.)
