I wonder what purpose the public schools serve, other than to warehouse children while their parents work or watch television. They certainly don’t teach much, as survey after survey shows. Is there any particular reason for having them? Apart from their baby-sitting function, I mean.
Schooling, sez me, should be adapted to the needs and capacities of those being schooled. For unintelligent children, the study of anything beyond minimal reading is a waste of time, since they will learn little or nothing more. For the intelligent, a public schooling is equivalent to tying an anchor to a student swimmer. The schools are an impediment to learning, a torture of the bright, and a form of negligent homicide against a country that needs trained minds in a competitive world.

I just watched a segment the other day about the misinformation the kids are being taught about Islam.
ReplyDeleteThat is only one example of some of the crap public schools are pumping into the kids of the next generation to come.
They are basically being taught that right is wrong, wrong is right, no sins only lifestyles.
There should be massive pullouts of students from public schools and home-schooled. With so many out of work, they certainly have the time to educate their kids now I think.
But hopefully do a good job at it.
