I agree that public school is very different these days even in relation to someone like me that graduated from a public school in 2001. My child attends a private school that I, along with an entire community feel provides our children with a great education and all that comes with it. The test scores( good or bad it's the only way to objectively evaluate progress) and abilities I see my child demonstrate day to day prove to me he is a getting a fantastic education.
You feel what you're doing is superior to all the other options. That's ok, it's your opinion. However, it's fact that public and private schools are producing highly successful people every day. Home school is right for your family. It's not the right choice for everyone.

It's clear this is an attempt to undermine public education. He pretty much said so much in his last post.
"One wonders if public school advocates and graduates have a habit of commenting before actually reading."
Then there is his comment about public schools churning out "vast numbers of graduates with an entitlement mentality". And that is the school's fault? When did it stop being the parent's responsibility to raise a child that did not have a sense of entitlement? How is that the school's fault? What are they teaching to give these kids a sense of entitlement?
Last I recall, schools were teaching math, science, english, art, and physical education. Where does social decorum fit into that curriculum? The molding of a productive young adult begins at home. If they are not taught at home how to behave and what is expected of them, how is that the school's fault? Afterall, from kindergarten to 12th grade, there is only one constant in most every child's life, and that is the parents. Teachers, administrators, even friends, change, but parents remain the same.
