I've been in public school my whole life up to now and my district isn't horrible but I'm sick of the violence, the drugs, the atheistic minded curriculum, and the budget cuts, I don't want any of my future children exposed to that.
I can't even pray or read my bible silently in my free time without getting in trouble and frankly the academics aren't great. Even our science and history books (two subjects where things can change rapidly) are still from 1986. I got a better grasp of the American Revolution from watching Liberty's Kids and school-house rock than from 8th grade.
Bird, this was before I accepted evolution after our unit in Bio class when I realized I didn't think it conflicted too much, but I prayed for a sign if I was about to sin by believing it and I got shut out of the room basically for sitting there with my hand together and my head down.
