Boy are you out of touch.
The purpose of their education is to make them good citizens, which
means they get force-fed fudamentalist bible belt crap like creationism
and anti-abortion propoganda. They also get taught the abridged
version of civics class where they leave out the entire bill of
rights. Oh yeah, forget that heliocentrism stuff. Don't ya know
that dubya is the center of the universe and can do no wrong?
And since when do you have kids?
