>It's my view that it isn't necessary, either. As the mother of two young men (now 19 and 23), I've spent a lot of time in the past two decades with young people. The ones who come into our home have almost all been educated in public schools that respect the religious backgrounds of their students, but don't cater to any one group. Their homes vary from quite observant (both Christian and Jewish) to virtually no religious content. Almost invariably, these kids are polite, well-mannered, focused, and headed for successful lives. Why? Because they were raised by parents who love them, in a community that values them, and given opportunities to learn and grow.
