Who's responsible?

Who is responsible for our son's education? We, as his parents, are.

I know this is idealistic, but the schools, the teachers, the principals and superintendents, the school boards, and all the politicians writing educational legislation all work for us. We are responsible for our child's education, not them. We utilize their services as we think best; but, they do not dictate what is best for our children. The truth is that educators don't know how to prepare kids for the future any more than we do. And what they do know, most of them are not doing anyway.

Though we send him to school, we are educating our son; we are responsible.
