<p>Well if the economic woes in the country, thanks to endless war, are creating mindsets where we are willingly discarding kids and creating a permanent underclass then I’m VERY glad my kids are almost done with public schools. </p>
<p>I really fear for the kids who are still in elementary schools because of this mindset. Studies show that in times of economic woe and financial hardship that domestic abuse INCREASES as does drug and alcohol abuse. Thus, there will be more kids in line to be discarded to the permanent underclass which will then increase demand on resources and negatively impact the economy. Which will then create more economic woe and financial hardship…</p>
<p>you get the picture.</p>
<p>Talk about antisocial memes. Just wait until you have a large permanent class of under/unemployed people with no jobs and no way out. Problems relegated now to inner cities will be expanding to areas once immune.</p>
