1 – Public schools can cripple your child’s ability to read. The schools use a special reading-instruction method to do this called whole-language (or balanced literacy). But that’s a good thing. Why do kids need to read anyhow? It only gives them ambitions to go to college.

The problem with public schools is that they are “public” and run by government. The problem is that these government-run public schools exist in the first place.
