So I like the civil disobedience take that the one mother is teaching her son. And why they are doing it. This is exciting! Keep making waves; they'll gain momentum, and come down with some force behind them.

    There is no law or program that will ever make kids or anyone else equal. Equality only brings down those that would otherwise achieve more. Are we willing to forgo those that might reinvent or discover things like penicillin, radiation, the transistor, integrated circuits, etc.? Just think about all the wonderful inventions and programs that come out of North Korea, where most of the people are all taught the same, and are all equal. If I had kids today I'm not sure I'd even let them go to public school. We all become equal at the very end, when we're put in the ground.
