I am also a nut job. The first thing people do when they learn this is ask me "oh, you're religious then?". I say no, the opposite. It would require religious faith at this point to believe that those schools could teach a kid anything at all.

Nut job here, too. Common core is terrifying. Glad it's getting some bad press.

These kinds of things are exactly why I am so glad that my parents homeschooled me.
