Let's keep this in the proper perspective, shall we?

Or do I need to search up all the abysmal statistical failures of the Board of Education across America???

Anyone sending their children to public schools is a total loser, because it's not like a big secret how bad the public education system is.

Just because some public schools are inferior doesn't mean that all schools are inferior. The parochial schools where I live are subpar in comparision to the public schools. Those who home school tend to produce book smart children who lack the social skills to excel as adults.

Funny, I have 3 kids, all of whom have attended public schools. One has graduated from college and is doing quite well in the real world, a second who rec'd a full scholarship to college, she's now a junior, and the 3rd is to enter high school next year, and she is more aware of the world around her than a good portion of the adults I work with.

The quality of the school system often has much to do with the quality of the parental involvement in said school system.

Your one size fits all analysis is simply flawed and the result of obvious, and not well thought out, bias.

Cheers.

No, you're a total moron. I've sent two kids through public schools, and the third in high school. The oldest in now in a Ph.D. program in the hard sciences at an Ivy League U.
