"PhishPhreak, are you sure you want us unionized, liberal teacher types instilling moral values on your kids. Wouldn't it be a better situation if this was taught at home or at church on Sunday. Schools have enough on their plate, what with all the testing, ESL, BD, LD, HD etc. not mention the three R's"

There is a lot of useless testing and subjects in schools that could be cut\replaced... Heck no I don't want shools trying to teach morals (they already do - in many ways) - but I'm talking about some basic life skills that they can use in their relationships - whether it be in their families or careers. Communication\relationship skills - seperate from specific religion or sexual preference.... (why do you think 'Dr Phil' is so popular the last few years - there is a true gap and need - not that he is the answer...)

Most kids don't go to church or have parents at home to talk to. Some do, many don't. I have my kids covered, but as a society and community, I'm concerned about those kids left to 'figure it out on their own'.
