May I point out that kids like TV. Should we let TV teach our kids because
they like that? They also like candy more than spinach. Should we adjust
their diets to what they want?

Any parent that loves their children will try to seek what is best for them,
not just give them what they want. Sending your kids to public school just
because the kids like it or because it will make them cool is not the act of
a loving parent.

If you love your children see to it they are getting a good education. A
real education, not learning how to be "street wise" like the other thugs in
our public schools.

How can they actually gain knowledge and confidence from being around
peers for 7 hrs a day? Most peers make fun off, put down, and give
others low self-confindence.How is street knowledge going to get them
anywhere in life? Street knowledge won't help them on their SAT, their
physics exam or getting them into a good university. So, again, how will
street knowledge give them a good life.
Also, why would I want to subject my children to even one day of peer
abuse?
