JOHN TAYLOR GATTO: · THE PUBLIC SCHOOL NIGHTMARE
"It's important to note that the underlying premise of Prussian schooling is that the government is the true parent of children--the State is sovereign over the family. At the most extreme pole of this notion is the idea that biological parents are really the enemies of their own children, not to be trusted."

E.D. HIRSCH: · THE KNOWLEDGE DEFICIT
"The knowledge deficit is a failure of social justice (and) the consequence of good intentions serving inadequate ideas."

Quotes

Quote from Andrew Nikiforuk's "If learning is so natural, why am I in school?" "Barbara Bateman is one of the continent's leading authorities on "academic child abuse," the "use of practices that cause unnecessary failure in foundation skills and knowledge areas. When school boards ignore the research that identifies how to teach virtually all children, they engage in abuse."
