The Results of a Dumbed-Down Education...

Sam Blumenfeld, http://thenewamerican.com/opinion/sam-blumenfeld says this:

"The public schoolers have been dumbed-down to become followers, not leaders...Public schoolers live in an artificially extended childhood which requires no adult responsibility, and extended adolescence devoid of analytical thinking."

This certainly seems true of many who have graduated from public schools in the last 20 years or so.

For more info on how our public schools are dumbing down our children, read the book DUMBING US DOWN (The Hidden Curriculum of Compulsory Schooling) by John Taylor Gatto - an award-winning  (former) public school teacher with 26 years of public school teaching experience, who was voted as being New York State Teacher of the Year for 1991.
