Not my kids's schools.

But what does that have to do with quality of education?

Same complaint as your parents generation had about your generation.

Not that it affects the quality of education.

(substitute 'Elvis Presly' or 'The Beatles' or 'Boy George' or 'Devo' or

I can't see any school that's created a 'culture of lies'. You're just
being irrational here.

ability to think.
