Very interesting. Particularly the difference in the middle to upper income kids vs low income.
"I personally feel children need the nurture of their parents and the home," she said. "Those early years, that's when they are bonding to their family. That nurturing, only the family can give that."
I tend to agree.

"Why? Why is that?"
Do we have a universal public school system in the U.S.? Absolutely.
Do we have a universal public dc system in the U.S.? No, we do not.
There's your answer.
Obviously, if universal public dc was a societal responsibility then such a program would exist.
Clearly however, there is no such program in existance.
Why is one a societal responsibility and the other not?
First you claim the U.S. is a purely capitalist society and that parents are responsible for raising their own children, then you claim that the U.S. has the social responsibility for educating those children. So are there societal responsibilities towards children or not?
Honestly, that scares me a bit.

"And I'm still waiting to hear why school is a societal need and dc is not."
See post 543.
"And I'm still waiting for answer to questions from threads from years ago as well ..."
Such as...?
LOLOLOL! So that's how you determine what's a "societal responsibility?" -- by what programs exist? LOLOLOL!
Heck, come on over and have a sit right beside me.

That has got to be the funniest thing I have heard in a long time.
