I just read this article about the recent court decision in California:
http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/03/07/MNJDVF0F1.DTL
Here's a quote from the article:
"Heimov said her organization's chief concern was not the quality of the children's education, but their "being in a place daily where they would be observed by people who had a duty to ensure their ongoing safety.""
If they are saying they want children to be with people who have a duty to ensure their safety, they should leave them with their parents.
There are MANY instances of children being abused by teachers, and even some female teachers are beginning to prey on students.
I find it odd that people are more trusting of teachers (who are strangers to the child) than they are of parents. In addition to being odd, it is also a bit scary.
