Get rid of public schools. Hmmmm! I wonder what kind of country we would eventually end up with. There are so many uninvolved parents as it is. I can't imagine a society where school is not mandated. If there were no public schools, could the uninvolved and/or barely lierate parent really home school their children? Home school curriculums are not cheap. In a world where it takes both parents working to make ends meet, who is going to do the teaching? For families that struggle to make ends meet, how do they pay for home school materials when their incom pays the bills, keeps a roof over their heads and puts food on the table. Private school you say! Yeah for a few thousand dollars a year. Same as the above, how will it be paid for by families. Public schools aren't perfect and yes there are some there who should probably look for other professions, but the alternative doesn't look too promising either.
