My wife teaches young children 5 to 6 yrs old. She teaches in a private school for the more well to do children here in San Diego.
What shocked me and was an eye opener was that out of her 24 students, only 4 were of American background. Many Chinese, many Vietnamese, a few German and Korean.
This is alarming to me. It speaks loudly of the priorities of the American family. No longer is education being emphasized.
The parents that bring their children to my wife's school are well to do and have a good income, why are they mostly foreign nationals?
This speaks volumes of our culture. We are letting our children decline into a life of pulchritudinous.
The fact that foreign nationals can afford the better schools than Americans is a big indicator that American families need to change their strategy in preparing their child for the big world they will soon face.
I don't know about you, but this concerns me...
