Schools exist to educate people...not to force their values down their throats. If educators want to teach their own children to think a certain way, that is fine. But they are stepping over a thousand lines by teaching my kids to think their way.
So you don't think schools should teach children to be polite, say 'please' and 'thank you,' raise their hands, etc.
