Now, her school may have kept the educational process from being an ABYSMAL failure, but I cannot determine that. <BR/><BR/>The Government "Education" system does not actually do anything to assist children in becoming educated. What the system does is teach everyone that they need to submit to authority, and look to peers for acceptance. It requires teachers to follow useless paper trails and engage in a bureaucratic nightmare that drives all spark from educators and students alike. This is just the way Government operates. Why should we expect anything different from a Government school? By promoting children through grades only based upon age, not ability, it removes any possibility of people dealing with actual intellectual peers, but forcing them to fit into the mold of average, which is dragged downward annually in an attempt to show "progress" to the people that are paying for this monstrosity. <BR/><BR/>If you didn't drill that into everyone, you couldn't have a massive Federal Government like we currently have. Everyone would revolt at the liberties we are having stolen from us on a weekly basis by all the branches of the Federal Government.Jeremy D.
