There’s been a lot of talk, articles, wailing and gnashing of teeth (all well deserved) about public education acting as an indoctrination factory for the country’s children. We read about Critical Race Theory, anti-science climate change theories, and over-sexualization being pushed every day.
What we’re not hearing about nearly enough is the fact that those things are replacing math, science, reading, logic, social studies, and civics, leading to a generation of children who can name the three Kardashian sisters, but don’t know the capital city of the United States.
Think I’m kidding?

“Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.” (Winston Churchill).
The US system isn’t even teaching history so what happens then? Social studies is not even part of standardized tests (gee, who creates these tests) so it has been minimized or removed altogether.
Families are fleeing public education. Because the one good thing from the covid panic is that parents found out what was going on in the classroom.
BTW, Steve Jobs called this almost thirty years ago. And gave reasons.
