Education process begins at home

Why has "passing the buck" become more of a pastime than the all-American game of baseball? School is out, summer vacation has begun and yet I still hear parents putting their child's educational failure solely ...

People pass the buck because they can. Schools have taken on these roles because some well meaning bureaucrat decided they should. The mission of schools should be cut back to what it was fifty years ago. Any kid who can't cut it in that should not be in there. If the parents don't do their job, then we should bring back reform schools.

Schools need to get back to reading, writing, and math. They have to stop raising the kids, that job belongs to the parent.
