[QUOTE="Elkeater, post: 2538565, member: 103670"] I guess I’ll offer my thoughts as the father of two young children (who are homeschooled). I think we are continuing to try to treat the symptoms rather than the root cause. We have a society of absentee parents. We push to have a consumer lifestyle that forces both parents to work in many cases and we have culturally accepted single parent households, divorce, screens as a babysitter, poor nutrition, and lack of a loving healthy mental environment for kids. We also have issues with society constantly asking the government to do more but complaining about increased taxes which means public servants continue to make less and less while being asked to do more and more which means that the good ones quit and move on to private industry and the bad ones just sort of do the bare minimum. There has to be a shift towards personal accountability and we as a society need to accept some responsibility for the state of our affairs. Just my thoughts. [/QUOTE]
