I’m amazed at the number of people who continue to sit their children in front of the TV to be entertained, never know what the children are watching and expect a positive outcome.

how about the ones that turn their child over to the teacher unions for 12 years and expect them to come out thinking that Communism is bad.

"how about the ones that turn their child over to the teacher unions for 12 years and expect them to come out thinking that Communism is bad."

Certainly no disagreement here. I am an elderly person and have completed that mission. We always included "home schooling" with public schooling. That is to say, we never assumed that the things being taught were necessarily the correct things. If one assumes that all is well with his/her child's public schooling, pray for a happy outcome while preparing for disaster.
