Education begins at home and I applaud the parents who recognize that they - not someone else - must take responsibility to assure that their children are well educated. ↗
The motives of these parents vary, many parents don't like the curriculum being taught to their kids, or are wary of the threat of peer pressure or the presence of drugs or violence lurking in too many of our schools today. ↗
America has global trade with plenty of nations that provide inexpensive labor, but it's better for us when they're in our own hemisphere, rather than sending that business halfway around the world. ↗
I remind everyone: Whether you school them at home or send them to school, you as a parent have the responsibility to make sure they learn and behave. Teachers and principals may help, but parents are the ones who must accept responsibility. ↗
Those people who want to express their religious beliefs on public property should enjoy the same rights that we provide to those protesting the war in Iraq. ↗
