Years of the Bush Recession plus wasting public money on private charter

Public schools are not failing from lack of funding. They are
failing from lack of parental committment to the educational process.
When sports and student "self esteem" are a schools top priorities,
the parents are inevitably to blame.

A big part of the problem is the number of kids who do not have
functioning families.

In DC, 80% of the births are to unwed mothers. Could that have something to do with the problem? I
wonder how Detroit and Chicago compare.
