QUESTION #7: Do we pay the government(taxes) to be the parents of our children. Are we abdicating our God-given responsibility? If so, then they - the various government entities - don't make very good parents. Big Brother will not win any awards for parenthood! The first six questions show you why. Need more proof? ALL of public education, including the new Quality Rating System programs to launch public day care, are geared toward welfare children and those with learning disabilities. Why do you think so many children are so bored in school? All the teacher can do now is teach and practice (over and over) the LEAP or competency tests. If the kids don't score well, the schools will lose federal dollars and their schools can be taken over by the courts. Government rather than PARENT leadership is why our country is in such an educational fiasco! The boat is sinking and there is no fix for the current system. The Public School System is like a big PIG who is so overstuffed that its legs can no longer hold it up. It is crawling along at a pre-historic, archaic pace. Compulsory Public Education is the largest employer in the U.S. if you take into consideration all of its many arms. Can you imagine the jobs and the corporations(including the publishers of standardized tests) that would be "infected" if parents stood up and said, "NO MORE!" The U.S. has its own Weapons of Mass Destruction - they are called Compulsory Public Schools! A parents revolt might start the next depression, but at least we would have our kids back!
Self Education. The End to Failure, Labels, and Boredom!
