I'm sorry, but I don't think there will be one. (There should be one, of course.) Many parents, especially the irreligious, are apathetic about their responsibility to educate their children - most importantly in areas of morality - when the state will do it for them. Others simply have very busy lives and use the system as a "free" nanny. Still others find it hard to justify the expenditure of time (or tuition for a private school) when they are forced to fund the public system through their taxes, especially as no tax-relief is forth-coming for people who opt out of state-controlled indoctrination.
