Oh, I know full well. Anyone who sends their kids to school is essentially committing child abuse.
HOME SCHOOL. It's better for the child and it's better for the family. Dual-income families with State indoctrination of raising children is ruining our society.
Take a look at those desks. A real close look. Now ask yourself, does that look like a short-term solution to you? Would schools go to that expense for something that would be over in a year?
Sticky, because there are a lot of links beside this one to discuss about what Today's Conditions are doing to children.
AND, the decision to home school, when, as a commenter says here, it is not so easy to live on one income. But there may be things to do about that.
If the kids are in a school, maybe make a committee of angry parents, to monitor the schools, to speak as a body, not just as one lone yeller.
The parent may throw up hands, pull the kids out of school. Then, study the frugalista movement, move in with relatives or friends. Or get a small cheap house deep in the countryside and work remotely. Drive to work once a week for meetings. All so as to live on one income.
There is also grandma's house. It is paid up.
Lots of knowledge workers work remotely now because they are forced to, but it might stick as a way of life.
That helps with home schooling.
Then throw out your TV, and life can get cheaper because you aren't seeing the ads, which make you buy things.

The sad thing is most of those kids come from poor families that cant afford private schools.
Exactly. Most can't afford homeschooling either.
Boils my blood seeing so many say "just homeschool". Between mortgage/rent, taxes, food, electricity, etc, how?
Real shitter is even if you pull your kids out of public school, you still have to pay taxes for it when you don't even use the service.
They always seem to be for the lower class and want to help the poor but they have done nothing but make it harder for them to come out of poverty.
This is called lying.
They think of the poor the same way a child molester thinks about kids.
