I'm not particularly surprised. However, I think I children should learn and understand evolutionary theory. Changes in species due to changes in genetic frequencies, competition, predation, etc. do happen. It's obviously a HUGE step (leap of faith if you ask me) to go from there to an abiotic beginning of life.

If parents are so concerned with their kid's understanding of origins, then they should do their own research and teach their own kids.

Yes, but you are talking micro-evolution not macro evolution. Macro-evolution is the jump from one species to another, the belief that a bird came out of a lizards shell is one example of a macro-evolution idea.
