Can we pretend George Bush doesn't exist too?

"Young Britons under 20 lack a basic historical education according to the survey results, historian Correlli Barnett told the Daily Mail."

I remember reading that our young ones are severely lacking when it comes to history and geography.

There are many that do not believe the Holocaust even exited as well. I have no idea what history they teach in schools, but being the father of young kids it scares me a little.

You learn to figure out exactly what they're being taught in school and fill in what you need them to know. We recently learned that as of my kid's grade, they stopped teaching cursive writing in school so I'll be teaching it to him myself, heaven help him.

50 years of pot smoking convinced Willie Nelson that it did.

LL2,

There is something disconcerting that the words "father of young kids" is about 3 millimeters away from the breasts of the woman in your avatar on my computer screen.

Very distracting avatar. It's easy to lose one's train of thought.

I thought it......but sure as heck wasn't going to say it.

[Kiwon]

It's crazy.

Moving left to right your eyes read the words, "Ron Paul" written on a woman's chest and then the words "father of young kids."

It discombobulated my inner ying-yang.

(Kinda like a few weeks ago when I was sitting on a beach in Thailand at dusk minding my own bidness when a human couple and a canine couple started.....um, "extreme amorous activity" shall we say, just a few yards apart from each other.

I asked myself, "Why is this scene grossing me out?" My inner ying-yang was seriously messed up.)

I know, I know......TMI (Too Much Information)

You apparently bring 'something' out in everyone.

As I said, I was an innocent (and ) observer to what suddenly started taking place. The human couple were Russian. The dog couple looked local.

I had a weird feeling seeing them at the breakfast buffet at the hotel the next morning. I wanted to say something smart-a to them but the only Russian I know is "Good Morning, Good Night, Sit down, Please, Thank You."

Come to think of it, that's probably all they said to one another on the beach. :P :P

I can't find the article but America's education system standards decline as the students get older compared to other countries.

In regards to science.

During the early stages of a student's "career" America is at the top of the ladder.

During the tween stages America's students are average compared to other Western countries.

During 12th grade America's students are below the rest of the world.
