Thats a cop out. I am not asking them to teach my child how to be a good person. I am asking them to teach math, history and reading. I am also paying top dollar through taxes for this. What do I get? Kids dont know the constitution, or can add 2 + 2. Instead they are being taught to cheat. Can we demand a refund?

No, it's not a cop out; it's the truth. If the parents don't give a crap about the kid's education, then the kid isn't going to give a crap and no amount of tax dollars funneled into the school is going to change that.
