As I see it, there are three major problems with public education: - A bureaucracy so big and unweidly it makes it close to impossible for educators to actually educate - The mistakes we make today won't be visible for about 15 to 20 years - People sending their kids there is a tacit acceptance of the state indoctrinating their children - Public schools become a ground for experimenting with social policy (look at the "progressive" military personnel policies during the Clinton administration) OK. That was actually four, but you get the point. -Roberto -- Roberto C. Sanchez http://familiasanchez.net/~roberto
