I agree about public schools, but having taught in them, I can tell you that one of the biggest problems is lack of parental involvement in supervising and being a part of local school policy. No law, TV, video game, etc., can fix the schools, only parents and kids loved by their parents.

You’ve just made my case for home schooling.

Besides that, the “public school” can only operate at the level of “lowest common denominator”. There used to be “college course”, “business course”, and “general studies” (for the dummies), but we can’t do that anymore.
But compulsory “public school” is a collectivist-statist institution and should be abandoned by a free people, anyway.

If the parents attend godless government schools they will learn to think and reason godlessly. They had to, just to cooperate in the classroom. How could it be otherwise?
If the parents attend socialist-entitlement, single-payer, government schools then the risk is that they learned to be comfortable with government socialism.
Today’s government teachers are reaping the godless and socialist fruits sowed by previous generations of government teachers.
Is it possible when the schools undermine the parents at every step??
When teachers condemn and ridicule religious beliefs in the classroom... when they hand condoms to 11 or 12 years olds and teach them to hump like little rabbits (and no opt outs)...
The fact is that publik skoolz do NOT want parents to be involved. They HATE it when parents show up and try to sit in on a class. Every time they complain they are told they are the only ones who have a problem with it, even when they know many others who complained too.
