Me too. The horrible "history" was a disservice to each and
all of the people who make up this country and served well
to keep us from ever getting to the point of embracing the
differences and learning to live as a single group for some
things and as an individual for others.
If we came out of grade and high school without having to
unlearn "information" given to us, we'd be way, way ahead
now.

This is really what makes the cheese more binding, this
sense of walk away from learning, it's not for me. Somehow,
the adult who walks way from learning is the child who was
discouraged from learning and fed misinformation to great a
level.
Yes, yes, yes! Put the great teachers with the little ones.
But don't lay it all on parents, either. Parents don't
necessarily get support for great parenting, nor the tools
to learn great parenting--or even medium to not-so-good
parenting.
