True, but some of us don't have the funds to send our kids to private school or to home school them--I live 80 miles north of New York City and the cost of living alone is exorbitant; my husband is an attorney and I work at a non-profit--we drove 10 year old cars and don't indulge in a luxury life at all. Plus, if we abandon the public schools, they will become madrassahs and the islamic threat will only grow. Parents of kids in public schools-STAND UP! Even if you are the only one, others will follow. I did it in my daughter's public school on an issue of inclusion of Ramadan in the Winter Holiday Concert (a holiday otherwise known as Christmas) and I will never stop fighting. This story in SC makes me absolutely sick.
Great! If more people thought like that and actually followed through with action, in numbers, we probably could rid the public school systems of a few of it's ills...most importantly today, the elevation of islam as 'acceptable'.
I realize not everyone has unlimited funds...however, I do see plenty of people who say that private school is too expensive...while they move into large homes and drive nice cars.
Seems like more conservatives should either sacrifice financially or participate in revolting againt the government schools.
We still live in the modest/nice home we moved into 7 years ago in order to have the extra $1000 per month to send 2 kids to Christian school. Could have bought more house, but decided not to.
BTW, glad to have you on our team. My wife was also a 'seeking' liberal when I first met her. She's a full fledged VRWC member now! Looks like you have come a long way. Congratulations!
