This recent zeitgeist in which Democrats and education officials claim that parents shouldn't really have a say in their kids' public educations—well, it may seem alarming, but it's actually really good news!
Why? Because it's been like this all along. Progressives and school administrators and many teachers have always pretty much believed it! Now they're saying the quiet part out loud.
At least they're being honest!
