Well, my wife and I have already thrown in the towel on public education. After a couple of years of "gay tolerance," the violence in public schools, indifferent teachers who didn't want parents involved and just hearing the crap the kids were learning and, mostly, not learning - everything from pagan rituals to communist dogma - the last straw for us came when my son came home with an English assignment to "write a witch's spell." We've been homeschooling ever since and now my children actually are learning American History and Geography.

I can assure you, however, that our government will never allow us to "throw in the towel" on tax-payer-funded public education. Where else can the left cull and create new homosexuals, atheists and communists? If homeschooling becomes too much of a threat, they will try to force the kids back at the point of a gun, such is their fanatical desperation. Today's News

Our kids go to private religious school now. Our public schools became oversized, filled with generally disinterested teachers, started pushing homosexuality in sex ed classes (in addition to encouraging pre-marital sex and abortion), changed their teaching curricula and philosophies every year (usually with new and untested ideas), didn't allow parents to find satisfaction after raising issues, etc. etc. In short, the public schools wanted our kids to do with what they wanted. We got out, for the sake of our kids. But the homosexual thing was the last straw. My sons do NOT need to learn about anal homosexual sex in 6th grade. That was child abuse.
