I guess it is either home school your kids or scrimp and save and send them to some elitist private school. Anything apart from Private school and Homeschooling (read Public school) is simply a slow form of attrition on the child.
And do not get me wrong....there are many who go through public school and become assertive self-motivated exemplars who perform excently in their life pursuits...but sadly such people coming out of public school is becoming a great rarity! Rarer than a four leafed clover!
Actually that reminds me of something i saw this morning. They were showing a profile of this gent who started a company called 'Girls Gone Wild' on some news channel....and in essence what his company does is tell college students to lift up their shirts and expose their breasts. Well....the founder of GGW became a millionaire when he was 24 due to the income accruing from the sales of the videos. Now you may wonder....what did the girls get from their 'efforts?'
A T-Shirt! That's all! A simply white T-Shirt with the company's name written on front (for them to tell their friends what they did)!
Now my question is this: this not the product of an education system that makes people, in this particular case girls, so dumb that they do see anything wrong in someone making multi-millions out of their breasts when all they get is a silly T-Shirt? As in comeone.....how slow can these girls get! Although i am sure their math skills are so atrophied that they probably do not know how many zeros a million has! And i can asure you nearly all those girls went through public school...actually i can even go as far as say ALL of them are the 'prime products' of pubic...oooops, public school!
