Tbh, I say that if you have a tv in your house, you send your kids to a school where they are taught kufr and surrounded by negative influences, and you don't follow the sunnah as best as you can, then you're probably a bad parent and are infringing upon the right of a child to have a good upbringing.

All examples of little interactions with big consequences. I still think it is too simplistic to say the fault lies with the 'bad' parent since that parent is a part of his/her environment too. Lack of solid community, especially for those of us in the West, is a contributing factor for some of us. Even those of us who live in Muslim countries, we complain of western (non-Islamic) influences breaching our communities... we are weak and weakened. The condition of our families is a symptom as well as a contributing factor.

[Okay, yes, homeschool your children if you can... for all of the reasons listed, it is a much better alternative than most of what is currently available]

And Allah (SWT) knows best.
