You’re advocating for parents to leave their children with “lousy teachers” rather than trying to educate them in a better manor. I’m surprised, I always had the impression you would advocate for kids, they deserve a sound education.

I know parents with incredibly complicated work, schedules and meetings who performed exceptionally under such difficult conditions. They have my complete admiration and kudos to this age group for their savvy.
You're misreading. I don't think they are lousy teachers. I think they're lousy parents. I'm not the one complaining about lousy teachers and threatening to homeschool my kids. I believe in public education, paying teachers more, having department aides who assist those teachers. I come from one of the first "Open Classroom" public elementary schools in the country, and my mother was a teacher in the same school district for 30 years.
