>I hate to add to the list of problems, but I probably should not neglect that one of the biggest problems is actually the PTA. It is filled with uneducated parents making education decisions for their children (and everyone elses).


As much as it pains me to sound like a conservative........

It isn't so much uneducated parents as over-educated parents with the best intentions in the world pushing their pet theories despite an almost total lack of real-world experience.
