But seriously, don't blame the schools/teachers/administration. Teach your kids what's important. School is a place to learn about following stupid rules and understanding how bureaucracy works (and hopefully how to manipulate it).
I don't trust the schools to teach my kids (although they do attend) and I don't have the patience to homeschool them - but I do tons of supplemental instruction in the home (mostly history, religion, poetry and mythology - and how these are interconnected.)
Hopefully they grow up to be autodidacts like me.

we do everything to teach our kid what we can outside of school.. but lets face it - we get our kid 2 quality hours a day - he's in the school for 7 .. its the same for most people where both work ...
by the time my kid is 13 teachers will have spent more time with him than we do .. it makes me sick but its reality.
