Private schools are antithetical to democracy

Moreover, similarly to an all-male college, private schools create a sheltered environment that does not resemble the real world, and students have the potential to come out into the adult world unprepared for the real world, with false expectations

If a public school is lacking in some way in your opinion, work to constantly make public schools better ... if we have multiple systems for different castes we might as well revert to monarchy or worse, it is a symptom that civilization is not civilized at all and humanity is not evolving ... private schools are a sign that humanity is probably worthy of extinction, after having failed for millennia to advance [i]culturally[/i] (not just technologically)

Private schools are also a symptom of the obsolescence of the notion of [i]families[/i], leading to varying successes or failures in [i][b]parenting[/b][/i], and expecting schools to become some sort of daycare facility for kids, then getting upset that they have ceased to function as educational institutions, in painfully cliché cart-before-horse fashion. Taking families out of the equation is something that [i]Brave New World[/i] actually gets right.
