No, if you want your children to be educated then I suggest you get them out of the failing public system and join the homeschool movement. It's not perfect either, but it is a whole lot better than the socialistic, peer dominated, amoral alternative. Of course you will have to give up your beautiful home in the estates and drive 20 year old cars because with mom staying at home raising a generation of responsible citizens you won't have enough money to afford the lifestyle you're currently living! We're probably not quite ready for that, are we? I know, it's a little close to home isn't it?
All you need to do is take a trip to the mall to see an eyeful of what we are producing today. I suggest you go with an empty stomach though, because there is a high rate of nausea experienced at those places by 'normal' humans. I can't fault the system, however, the root of the problem lies with our fractured selfish society. With divorce rates at all time highs how can we expect mom and dad to mentor the latchkey generation? Mom and dad need mentoring themselves.
Can American students compete?
