You've done quite a bit of thinking about this, my Lady. My daughters are in their mid & late twenties now. Their mother and I had the good fortune of a good public school system. It was the same with my current wife and her three children, the youngest a freshman in college. Things change. I'm glad not to be in the shoes of having to make educational decisions or to be in an extremely liberal area where there are brawls at school board meetings. If someone can get their children through all of that, they have to worry about them getting indoctrinated at college. My step son is a grounded, level headed young man. So, the wife and I are confident our kids will be fine. We are the lucky ones.
