"Parents give up their rights when they drop the children off at public school." 
--Federal District Judge Melinda Harmon

Judge Harmon made that ruling against the parents after the parents sued a Texas school district. Their son had been questioned at school without their knowledge, and strip searched by a female Texas Children's Protective Services worker looking for signs of paddling the boy's parents had allegedly administered. -Wall St. Journal 10/8/96-

The New Hampshire Supreme Court in 1912 stated:

"Free schooling . . . is not so much a right granted to pupils as a duty imposed upon them for the public good. . . . While most people regard the public schools as the means of great advantage to the pupils, the fact is too often overlooked that they are governmental means of protecting the state from consequences of an ignorant and incompetent citizenship."

Well folks, the question begs- DO WE HAVE AN IGNORANT AND INCOMPETENT CITIZENSHIP today?

And if so, WHOSE FAULT might that be?
