Another very valid point. However, since I am not a educator, I must rely on those with the background to educate. Parents are clearly in a supportive role with respect to acquisition of knowledge. I see my parental role as a teacher of how to integrate with society, not as being the primary educator. I help my children with their homework and teach them my standard of morals and ethics. I teach them what I have learned through the "school of hard-knocks" and try to make sure they are a passionate person in anything they believe in.

Again, another very good point you have raised with respect to parents. But, if I may have a small rebuttal...

If a parent is one of the blind, who will ensure that the child is not blind?

OIC!
