So what is your beef, then?

With people who forget that education is a partnership bewteen a
school and the parent.

And that is the fault of the schools how?

According to Matt B. it is because the parents that don't get involved are
products of the public schools, and the teachers are mostly stupid, because
they are products of the public schools.

It is true. Another factor is that so many families today have
both parents working... just to make ends meet and to pay taxes
to support the government programs that are created or expanded
every year (to wit: no idiot left behind [as if better education
can be legislated into reality]). I still can't honestly
come up with something the government does well.... besides
spend other people's money.

I don't buy it. There are always exceptions, though.

Matt is constant, that is one fact. His story never changes away from a
very narrow stance.

Perhaps his story is based on principle. Principles don't
don't change with polls or political expedient.
